Frankly it is insane that tar hasn't been epoched and regressed back to 1.15.1. No other software distro would allow a single critical package like this to be left broken for so long. If we can rationalize leaving our dpkg at such an old version certainly we can also justify leaving tar at 1.15.1. Jack
