Subject: | [Bug-tar] 'tar --version' in 1.14.90 |
Date: | Wed, 27 Oct 2004 22:22:46 +0000 |
The configure script for amanda[1] looks for '*GNU*tar*' when it checks to see what version of tar is present & fails the test since 'GNU' isn't in the string. I have already notified the amanda developers, but thought other projects might do something similar to check if the version of tar is compatible with GNU tar. Is there some other preferred method to check this in addition to the version number?
