dpkg-deb: subprocess tar killed by signal (Bus error)
dpkg: error processing /sw/var/cache/apt/archives/gettext_0.10.40-17_darwin-powerpc.deb (--unpack):
subprocess dpkg-deb --control returned error exit status 2
Errors were encountered while processing:
/sw/var/cache/apt/archives/gettext_0.10.40-17_darwin-powerpc.deb
E: Sub-process /sw/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
How do I find out which tar is executed and remove it?

A shot in the dark: Try
sudo apt-get install --reinstall gettext
If this breaks again with the same error, look which "tar" is executed, and remove (temporarily) tar binaries not in /usr/bin.
