I just tested it in my Mint x86 VirtualBox VM, and the extract function worked just fine. However, even running as root, the create function reported "archive_read_next_header2() failed: *.*: Cannot stat (FAILED). Failed to create intermediate archive '/tmp/kindletool_create_tarball_QNYi7x'." which is strange because root is in a vitualbox CDI image file.
It
SHOULD work. Why can't my x86 write to its own virtual /tmp/ even while running as root? Anyway, it works fine for some functions and not others. I suspect my win32 (local tempfile) fix would also work here as well...
Hopefully it would work as expected on a non-emulated x86 linux...
