They meant the command dtrx, the combination of dtrx as parameters to tar make no sense. Extract AND append?
haha, ok thanks. So https://github.com/dtrx-py/dtrx
I'd initially assumed that it was a mnemonic but yes, listing and appending and extracting together is nonsensical, as tar notes:
tar: You may not specify more than one '-Acdtrux', '--delete' or '--test-label' option
