New issue 128 by krazykit: nTorrent-bin-0.5.1.tar.bz2 is a tar bomb
http://code.google.com/p/ntorrent/issues/detail?id=128

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. download nTorrent-bin-0.5.1.tar.bz2
2. extract the file (tar xjf)
3. look at the mess made all over the place

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I would expect that the contents of the tarball would be in a directory
named nTorrent or nTorrent-bin-0.5.1, as this prevents files in the tarball
from being written into directories that may already exist.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
0.5.1 on Debian Sid, but this issue would be reproducible on any system
using GNU tar

Please provide any additional information below and if necessary, attach
the nTorrent log file found under $HOME/.ntorrent/.
