> I'm OK to stick with gtar. Update - the tar in my CentOS 5.10 (and I presume RHEL 5) system is gnu tar, but too old to have the --transform option. I've picked the SRPM from Fedora 10 (!), remade the rpm and installed. This has the --transform option and Makepkgs worked. If you go later than Fedora 10 you run into autoconf version incompatibilities (certainly by Fedora 16 this prevents the source rpm rebuild). Earlier then Fedora 10 and the version of gnu tar is too old. Bit of a battle, but done now. |
