Subject: emacs 21.3: -h flag to tar not supported on BSD/OS
Date: Sun, 11 May 2003 21:21:08 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200305120121.h4C1L8j03311@kismet.honig.net> (raw)

While importing emacs-21.3 into BSD/OS 4.3/5.0 I found that Makefile.in
and leim/Makefile.in invoke tar with -chf.  The -h flag is not supported
by BSD/OS's tar (which is just a front-end for pax).

I do not see any symlinks in the distribution so I wonder why this flag
is there.

Enclosed is the change I've made.

Thanks.

Jeff
