Yes, it is already available from ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu. Please, download it instead of patching 1.22. > Also, is tar.git even complete? It appears to be missing some libs > found in tar releases. It does not include files which are taken from other projects (gnulib and paxutils) and files which are generated automatically during the bootstrap. > What is your recommended way to build tar from git? The git sources must be "bootstrapped" first. This process and prerequisites to it are described in detail in the file README-hacking. Regards, Sergey
