Title:
  Error "Unexpected end of file" produces unusable TAGS file when used
  with -R

Status in “exuberant-ctags” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “exuberant-ctags” package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: exuberant-ctags

  Using ctags -R on my project tree produces the following output:

  ctags: Unexpected end of file:
  net.sf.j2s.lib/j2slib/java/lang/reflect/Array.js

  The tags file that it produces is then unusable by Vim.

  But ctags works when running it on the individual file that it fails
  on in recursive:
