Description Germano Massullo (Thetra) 2017-11-28 17:31:21 UTC 
Creating .tar compressed files, results in having a file which content still has informations about user/group that has created it.
Tar supports creation of compressed archives removing the username/grou informations: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/285245/34036
It would be nice to have such option in Ark

Thank you for the bug report. Unfortunately we were not able to get to it yet. Can we ask you to please check if this is still an issue with Ark 25.12.2.

Yes it is still an issue with Ark 25.12.2
