6.59.1. Installation of Tar

Fix an incompatibility between this package and Glibc-2.17:

sed -i -e '/gets is a/d' gnu/stdio.in.h

Prepare Tar for compilation:

FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE=1  \
./configure --prefix=/usr \
            --bindir=/bin \
            --libexecdir=/usr/sbin

The meaning of the configure options:

FORCE_UNSAFE_CONFIGURE=1

This forces the test for mknod to be run as root. It is generally considered dangerous to run this test as the root user, but as it is being run on an only partially built system, overriding it is OK.

Compile the package:

make

To test the results (about 1 SBU), issue:

make check

Установим пакет:

make install
make -C doc install-html docdir=/usr/share/doc/tar-1.26
