Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: dar-docs

/usr/share/doc/dar-docs/examples/sample1.txt contains the ONLY examples
of how to extract less than everything from a dar archive anywhere in
the documentation.

However they do not work!

dar says they have invalid syntax.

To quote:
#something like this to restore something (etc-subtree):
# dar -x /mnt/win_d/darbackups/SIMSON_backup -R / etc
#And something like this to retrieve a single file to temp
# dar -x /mnt/win_d/darbackups/SIMSON_backup -R /tmp/ etc/httpd/conf/httpd2.conf --flat

However both those commands result in:
    Parse error on command line (or included files): Unknown argument  ...
