The misc/amanda-client port has been modified to remove dependency on archivers/gtar since it is now included in the base system. However, the /usr/local/libexec/sendbackup program the amanda-client port still calls "gtar" directly by name. I discovered this when investigating why a backup that seemed to have completed properly was missing a few filesystems from FreeBSD servers. Fix: As a workaround: # cd /usr/bin # ln -s tar gtar A fix would look similar to below, although I haven't investigated whether other programs are involved. This hardcoded value sort of surprised me: start_index(options->createindex, dumpout, mesgf, indexf, indexcmd); - my_argv[i++] = "gtar"; + my_argv[i++] = "tar"; my_argv[i++] = "--create"; my_argv[i++] = "--file"; my_argv[i++] = "-";--ry5fonxNJNOMKFqdrXfE0t6TeTORn4vZuHHqhyUcD8jB4FNk Content-Type: text/plain; name="file.diff" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="file.diff" --- sendbackup-gnutar.c-old Fri Oct 10 11:08:07 2003 +++ sendbackup-gnutar.c Fri Oct 10 11:08:30 2003 @@ -480,7 +480,7 @@
