 > The problem is that in the tarball, '**xattr.com.apple.provenance**'
 gets attached to the 'Mozilla-CA-20230801/README' file and the 'Mozilla-
 CA-20230801/lib/Mozilla' directory.\\

 How did you determine that this was the problem? I haven't investigated it
 but it doesn't seem likely to me. You're talking about extended filesystem
 attributes—additional metadata that can be attached to any file or
 directory. Significantly, they are not part of the file data. However tar
 here is complaining about extended pax attributes, which are a completely
 different thing and are part of the file data (they are part of how tar
 files work).

 > If by "report the broken tarball issue to the developers", you mean file
 a GitHub issue, then I have now done that (https://github.com/libwww-perl
 /Mozilla-CA/issues/21).

 Yes, that's what I meant. They created the tarball that has the problem;
 I'm hoping they will create a new tarball that doesn't have the problem.
 We can work around it by having the portfile use gnutar instead but we'd
 rather not have to do that.
