I am not aware of, or at least cannot find a package called gtar, either on my server, or out on Freshmeat. I assumed, perhaps wrongly, that Jon was referring to the gnutar package there.
That's what I meant, too. I know that on some systems, GNU tar is installed as `gtar' in order to differentiate it from the system's native `tar'.
