+They managed to 'break' tar. Again. Sorry, they fixed a regression
+which broke dpkg-deb.
+
+The addition of:
+http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/tar.git/commit/?id=163e96a0e619a900eab6de827c7c5749ecc9d3f2
+("Bugfix: entries read from the -T file did not get proper matching_flag.")
+means that the no-recursion option gets lost. This leads to many files getting included
+multiple times, along with files which shouldn't be there.
+
+The commit message is horrendous. The patch actually makes the option positional
+(as documnted since 2003) and therefore doesn't affect the input from the -T option.
+
+Moving the --no-reursion option to earlier in the command avoids the bug.
+
+The bug was not present in tar 1.28 however it has been backported in at least
+Fedora 22 and heading into Fedora 21.
