Is there a list of known working/broken tar versions?  I remember
discussions about versions < 1.13.19 not building indexes correctly
(and was bit by that myself when I first started), and I saw some
remarks about the latest (at some time) version not working.
  Just asking because in the last week Debian Sarge is now distributing
tar 1.14.  My amanda at work is built to use a local version, but my
home setup isn't.  I intend to test it with some restores, but if there
are some subtle changes I might not notice until it's too late ;-).

Thanks,
Frank
