If you've got some spare time, there's been discussion about a potential way to fix this problem. Assuming you still can reproduce the 'tar' hang, then please try the following: 1) Temporarily rename /sw/bin/tar to something unlikely to be run, like /sw/bin/tar.dont.work 2) Try building something whose source is a tarball. fink will default to use Apple's 'gnutar' for unpacking instead. If the unpack and build process works, then we can confirm that the issue is with our tar. There have been reports in the past on IRC that this worked, but I'd like a more public confirmation. :-) -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Free Next-Gen Firewall Hardware Offer Buy your Sophos next-gen firewall before the end March 2013 and get the hardware for free!
