libtar (1.2.20-4) unstable; urgency=high
* no_maxpathlen.patch: Half of the part of the patch modifying
compat/dirname.c was missing, causing libtar's dirname to always
return NULL (except in special circumstances). Actually make it work
(Closes: #745352). (The reason that libtar doesn't use libc's
dirname() and basename() on some or most platforms is that the code
doesn't work with destructive versions of these functions).
