Right. I have tested it. However, the archives generated by dar version
greater than or equal to 2.3.4 have a greater revision format than
archives generated by version 2.3.x where x < 4. Thus if you read with
release 2.3.x --- with x < 4 --- an archive generated by next to come
release 2.3.5 using "-K bfw:" this will trigger a warning telling that
the archive is too recent and asking whether to ignore this difference
or abort the operation. if you ignore the difference, you will be able
to read the encrypted archive.
