[9fans] unvac troubles...

[Venkatesh Srinivas]

Hi,

I'm using unvac to try to extract some vac archives I made in the fall
of 2008. I'm running into a pair of problems.

First, unvac is outputting directories with the write bit off. This
causes it to fail pretty early, as it can't write files to the
newly-extracted directories. Is this expected? Is there a way to avoid
this problem?

Second I get this error: (on p9p unvac)

unvac: pthread_mutex_lock.c:289: __pthread_mutex_lock: Assertion
`(-(e)) != 3 || !robust' failed.

Have any of you seen anything like this?

This happens to me too. I usually just delete the old directory and
extract again.
