Mmm, strange. I will install the svn code to check if I get the same behaviour.

This is because of the different switches for gtar. Could you please tell
me which switches are involved to create a tar archive? On Linux I do this:

tar -cvvjf /media/sdb10/xa_archives/test.tar.bz2 pixmaps

and the whole pixmaps dir is "tarred" into the archive.

Yeah, normal behaviour. i don't know if I will implement this.
