I have a problem that i do not have tar on my windows machine, and for that 
reason Pkg.build("GR") fails. I tried fixing it using 7zip as that was 
present in my julia bin folder by replacing 

run(`tar xzf downloads/$tarball`)

with 

run(pipeline(`7z x -so downloads/$tarball`,`7z x -aoa -si -ttar -o"."`))

--- That worked fine on my windows machine, but fails on 
travis: https://travis-ci.org/jheinen/GR.jl/jobs/106192456

Any tips are welcome.
