Re: [Bug-tar] Errors compiling GNUtar 1.28

Hello,

Apologies for the double post, attachment did not seem to take.

I have a need to compile GNU tar 1.28 for Solaris 8. When running make I get the errors below. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I am using Sun Studio 11 C Compiler 11.0 with all patches applied. Sorry, no gcc installed on this system (SunOS bldsvr 5.8 Generic_127721-10 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V240 Solaris).

Cheers,
