Re: Where is the 'tar' source code?
Aha, should have figured to look for a link! Anyway, I solved my problem without looking at source code. There was a blank line in the file I was using with -I, and that caused tar/pax to barf.

ln /bin/pax /bin/tar?

Where is the 'tar' source code?
Hey folks, I'm experiencing some really bizarre behavior with tar when trying to pass it a list of files with the -I option, and I want to look at the source code but alas it is not in the tree that I can find. Yet the machine having the issue was built on this very same build machine. I'd expect it to be here : root@openbsd-build32 /usr/src # which tar /bin/tar root@openbsd-build32 /usr/src/bin # ls CVS chio date echo kill md5 pax rmstty Makefile chmod ddedksh mkdir psrmail sync Makefile.inc cpdfexpr ln mtpwd rmdir systrace cat csh domainnamehostname ls mvrcp sleep test root@openbsd-build32 /usr/src # find . -name tar thanks, -Alan -- "Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV" - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"
