[Kaffe] problem while runing any java program on SUN / Solari s 2 .5.1

[Philippe Emeriau]

Hey, you're more lucky than me ...
Even with GNU tar, I still have the same errors !
Even worse, for each file where I have an error during the unpacking
process, I have tried to create an empty one, but the error is still there
...

Am I alone with this kind of problem ???
Cheers
Philippe

I've run into this as well on my Sun.  I believe it's an incompatibility
with Sun's tar and whatever was used to build the tarball.  I ended up
creating the directories manually, but afterward it occurred to me that
the GNU tar may do a better job of unpacking.
