i am installaing amanda on a RHEL4 workstation.  when using 
amanda-backup_client-2.5.0-1.rhel4.i386.rpm from the zmanda site,
it fails with:

error: Failed dependencies:
        tar >= 1.15 is needed by amanda-backup_client-2.5.0-1.rhel4.i386

yet when i have searched for a tar >= 1.15 rpm i have only found rpms 
for RHEL4 going up through tar-1.14-9.RHEL4.src.rpm (this on rpmfind).
>= 1.15 rpms are only available for SuSE, Mandriva, Fedora and Mandrake.

is it possible to use an rpm from one of these other distros?  what do 
other folks do about this?

thanks,

chris
