Just to confirm, this is the same path you get if you run "cat pseudodone" in
your build directory?

No, the code to do this was there in denzil as well. Here's the code cut out
into a shell script - could you put this into a file and run it and tell me
what it prints on your system?
--------------- snip --------------
#!/bin/sh
needtar=1
TARVERSION=`tar --version | head -n 1 | cut -d ' ' -f 4`
float_test() {
echo | awk 'END { exit ( !( '"$1"')); }'
}
# Tar version 1.24 and onwards handle overwriting symlinks correctly
# but earlier versions do not; this needs to work properly for sstate
float_test "$TARVERSION > 1.23" && needtar="0"
echo $needtar
--------------- snip --------------
Thanks,
Paul
