Prerequisites

  • Are you running the latest version?
  • Can you reproduce the problem in the debug version?

Check and fill as appropriate:

  • I was running Aaru under Windows 10...
  • I was running Aaru under Linux [version here]...
  • I was running Aaru under macOS [version here]...
  • ...in 32-bit
  • ...in 64-bit
  • ...using an Intel / AMD processor
  • ...using an ARM or Apple Silicon processor
    • Image format:
    • Application that created the image:
  • I was converting the image...
    • ...Destination image format:
  • I was listing the filesystem contents...
  • I was extracting the filesystem contents...
    • ...Filesystem: Any with extended attributes
    • Analyze command recognizes the filesystem
  • I was creating a metadata sidecar
  • I was checksumming the image
  • I was verifying the image

Description

When Aaru extracts files from a filesystem with extended attributes, it creates a new ".xattrs" folder in each subdirectory instead of a single ".xattrs" folder in the root directory.

Exact command line used:

Aaru [command] [parameters]

Expected behavior:

Actual behavior:

Output of command execution with debug output enabled

Paste the whole output of the executed command when you append '-d' to your command line parameters here
