Ruby 1.8.5
Rake 0.7.1
Solaris 10
One of the issues I noticed for Rake::GemPackageTask is that it assumes GNU tar. If I do 'need_tar_gz = true' and try to run 'rake package' it will fail because Solaris' tar doesn't support the -z option:
tar zcvf solaris-kstat-0.2.2.tar.gz solaris-kstat-0.2.2
tar: z: unknown function modifier
Usage: tar {c|r|t|u|[EMAIL PROTECTED] [blocksize] [tarfile] [size] [exclude-file...] {file | -I include-file | -C directory file}...
rake aborted!
Command failed with status (1): [tar zcvf solaris-kstat-0.2.2.tar.gz solari...]
(See full trace by running task with --trace)
I do have gtar installed on this system, but I need a way to tell the GemPackageTask to use it. Is there a way to do that? If not, can we add it?
Thanks,
Dan
