tar: value 1786588783 out of uid_t range 0..2097151 `make dist` using automake is causing this. Basically it's trying to use an old tar format. ustar or posix or whatever. Tar breaks when you have a long uid with this.
Now, fixing tar would be an option, to use posix tars, and ignore long uids, and just not store them, quietly. But I think a better option would be for `make dist` to have the ability to just use gnu tars. I'd rather use them. I have no issue with compatibility. So what would it take to do this? -- Jerome Haltom <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Institution Solutions LLC
