+#1 You are storing by id instead of name like normal tar. Did you realize this?
+(or am I missing some compile option? )ctar did not do this, and I don't think
+it's a good idea for LRP.
+
+#2
+ctar did not produce the EOF error like your tar does. I believe you need to
+pad the end of the archive with at least 2 tarsized (512byte) blocks. (I
+think???)
+
+#3
+There is no exclude file(s) option to tar. LRP's packaging system can not
+function without this. Will you have the time to add this soon?
