What tar are you using, which os are you on? I don't see this
problem.
You also might want to give version 1.04 a chance which is pre-released
(ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/xemacs/beta/experimental/packages)

Having a closer look at the *Packages Output* buffer, I see the same
messages, even for the 1.04 version. The package gets installed,
though.
Steve Y, do you know anything about this?
Thanks,

I don't see the warnings at all. The tarball unpacks fine here.

It's due to some Makefile hackery I used to put some files in
./man/x-symbol/ that don't normally get put into that directory in
other packages.

`----
That unpacks to 'etc/../man/x-symbol/'
I'll see if I can come up with some other way to do it.

It's due to some Makefile hackery I used to put some files in
./man/x-symbol/ that don't normally get put into that directory in
other packages.
I confirm the strange messages while untaring under
Suse Linux 7.2 with tar (GNU tar) 1.13.18
Worse, the package does not work well, however when I install
Christoph's latest package in ~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages
everything is fine.

I confirm the strange messages while untaring under
Suse Linux 7.2 with tar (GNU tar) 1.13.18
I've committed to FreeBSD CVS repositry(*) with
-＠${EXTRACT_CMD} ${EXTRACT_BEFORE_ARGS} ${DISTDIR}/${DIST_SUBDIR}/${f} \
${EXTRACT_AFTER_ARGS} -C ${WRKSRC}
I hope x-symbol-*-pkg.tar.gz would be extracted with no
trouble in the next version :)

Steve, I believe the original package comes without the Makefile
hackery that you do. Thus, it puts the files into etc, not into man
and doesn't cause a headache.

I know, IMO the upstream package is wrong. And I don't think this is
what Uwe is talking about. Right, Uwe?

Hm I am a little lost.
It is as follows: I install Christophs latest x-symbol, in package
form. I do this, just untarring it into ~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages
so far so good.
now i un install it and install the 1.03 official x-symbol package via
PUI, just when i open a tex file the world breaks down, that is
the tex file is not in x-symbol-mode as it should.
so i de install it again, and try to make and experiment:
i try just to untar the pkg in my ~/.xemacs/xemacs-packages
but this does not work i cannot untar the file, i get the error
message mentioned above. whether this error message has something todo
with the problems i mention, i don't know.
unfortunately i am very short on time right now. so long testing is
impossible, if i am the only guy who complains, forget it

X-Symbol (XEmacs package) appears to work fine for me. There are some
problems using it in 21.5 but I think those are more than likely the
fault of 21.5 and not X-Symbol.
As for the tar breakage, I'll fix that now.
