Accounts - Bug in 3.4 when using Backup

[David]

@tomas3000 This should fix it for you. I’ve traced the problem (or rather read it on here).

Sailfish has full tar. Sailfish X has Busybox tar, which can’t deal with the tar that ordinary Sailfish Backup creates.

It’s fairly easily fixable by first installing NielsDK’s tar:

For whatever reason, this makes it possible to create accounts again.

[SOLVED] Backup restored incompletely from Jolla 1 to Xperia 10

I’ve read somewhere that Sailfish X is using BusyBox on the Xperia devices, which contains a simplified variant of tar. By contrast, Sailfish on the original Jolla 1 uses the GNU tar. I don’t know exactly if this is true (looks like it though), and I don’t know if this even affects archivemount. But it’s the only difference of any relevance that I found.
