Hello,

I'm feeling a bit desperate since I updated for Mac Os X Lion 10.7, just 
because the extraction process, the "tar" command, does not work anymore 
because it's a powerpc command!
And this applies also with macports: when I install it from the dmg disk, the 
one for Lion, it says at the end of the installation that the tar command 
couldn't launch!
Hopefully, I can download the source, extract it with another utility, then 
install macports with source, this seems to work. 
But I can't install any port or performing a "selfupdate":

When I try to install a port, the problem is:

Error: Target org.macports.extract returned: shell command failed (see log for 
details)

When I try to selfupdate with sudo port -v selfupdate , the problem is: 

Launch of "tar" failed: the PowerPC architecture is no longer supported.

I've got the latest version of Xcode and macports, this is not the problem.

Can you help me with this issue?

Many thanks,

François
