Description Patrick M. Hausen 2005-10-14 08:30:17 UTC 
GNU tar was removed from the base system some while ago. Now,
when installing Amanda client, it's configure script doesn't
find GNU tar and disables support for it.

Fix: 

Install archivers/gtar first, then install Amanda client.
Suggested change: introduce a Makefile option to pull in GNU tar
as a dependency.
How-To-Repeat: cd /usr/ports/misc/amanda-client
make install clean

bowman# su -m operator -c "amcheck -c KARLSRUHE"
