Yeah they probably whipped it up with some patches. $ tar --xattrs tar: unrecognized option `--xattrs' Try `tar --help' or `tar --usage' for more information. $ tar --acl tar: unrecognized option `--acl' Try `tar --help' or `tar --usage' for more information. $ rpm -q tar tar-1.17-21 (Not everything that runs rpm is a fedorahat, though) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
