[AMaViS-user] confusion about Archives::Tar

[Jim H. <ha...@us...>]

The instructions for installing AMaViS say that Archive::Tar needs to be
patched and that you should get the patch from http://www.amavis.org/contrib

The contrib web page has 2 different patches about this.  The first is from
'moi' and date 30 Aug 2001.  It is a patch to amavis itself.  The second is
from Chris Mason date Jan 2000 and is for Archive-Tar-0.21.  The current
version is 0.22, but it appears that Chris' patch will apply also.

I wasn't sure which to apply, so I went to the archives of this mailing list
and read through the discussion about this in late February of 2002.  That had
still a different patch for Archive-Tar-0.21 (starting with sub
safe_extract_archive) with some handwaving about its incompleteness.

So, my question is which one, two or three of the above should be done for a
fresh install?
