Revision 1.2 Fri Sep 15 08:04:20 2006 UTC (4 years, 11 months ago) by ru Branches: MAIN CVS tags: HEAD FILE REMOVED Changes since revision 1.1: +0 -0 lines

Remove vestiges of GNU tar.

What does this mean? getdate.c has been moved somewhere else?

Was it helpful?

Solution

it means the gnu tar version has been removed from the FreeBSD source tree in favor of a BSD-licensed one aka bsdtar (which works very nicely). This means of course that it does not belong in contrib anymore and has been moved to here: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/usr.bin/tar/?hideattic=0
