Hi Peter, > The Apple supplied versions of /usr/bin/gnutar in PPC Tiger (Mac OS X > 10.4.11) and PPC Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5.8), 1.14 resp. 1.15.1, show > since some time warnings like this
Please note, that tar 1.15.1 was released almost 16 years ago (2004-12-21, to be precise). I would rather refrain from calling it a "modern GNU tar". > /usr/bin/gnutar: meson-0.55.3/COPYING: implausibly old time stamp 1970-01-01 > 01:00:00 Tar reports this warning if, after extracting a member of the archive, it finds that the timestamp of the createed file is 0. There have been plenty of changes (time-related ones in particular) over the last 16 years of the development of GNU tar. I'd suggest using a sufficiently recent version instead of the antiquated 1.15.1. Best regards, Sergey
