source tarballs

[prev] [thread] [next] [lurker] [Date index for 2006/05/26]

How hard is it to tar up a source tree in its own sub-directory?  
Obviously for some it must be really difficult.  When I 'tar -xvzf 
your-cool-program-1.0.tar.gz', it damn well better extract itself into 
the 'your-cool-program-1.0' directory instead of crapping all over my 
current directory.

Hate.
