On i386 only (builds properly in my amd64 poudriere): configure: error: in `/wrkdirs/usr/ports/archivers/gtar/work/tar-1.35': configure: error: could not enable timestamps after mid-January 2038. This package recommends support for these later timestamps. However, to proceed with signed 32-bit time_t even though it will fail then, configure with '--disable-year2038'. See `config.log' for more details ===> Script "configure" failed unexpectedly. Please report the problem to naddy@FreeBSD.org [maintainer] and attach the "/wrkdirs/usr/ports/archivers/gtar/work/tar-1.35/config.log" including the output of the failure of your make command. Also, it might be a good idea to provide an overview of all packages installed on your system (e.g. a /usr/local/sbin/pkg-static info -g -Ea). *** Error code 1 Stop. make: stopped in /usr/ports/archivers/gtar =>> Cleaning up wrkdir ===> Cleaning for gtar-1.35 build of archivers/gtar | gtar-1.35 ended at Thu Jul 20 06:48:58 PDT 2023 build time: 00:01:59 !!! build failure encountered !!! I may cobble a patch for this later.
Created attachment 243504 [details] Fix build on i386.
Hmm. CONFIGURE_ARGS_i386 doesn't take. Though, the warning says it will fail later anyway. I'm not too concerned about this. I use amd64 here with i386 boot partitions for testing and a single i386 machine. None of the i386 partitions nor the i386 machine have been used for a while, only my i386 poudriere is currently used for testing. (Been toying with the idea of retiring all i386 here entirely.)

FreeBSD/i386 still has a 32-bit time_t. PR: 272622 Reported by: cy archivers/gtar/Makefile | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+)
Thanks. I missed that check because it is hidden in gnulib. The --disable-year2038 option can be set unconditionally, it has no effect on Y2038-safe platforms.
