We can't see anything cause the tar command was not compiled with debug information (extra bits with information about how the program works). Yo have to install the tar debuginfor RPM.

segmentation error
Hello everybody, First of all, my best wishes for 2009. May all the problems you couldn't solve in 2008, find a solution in 2009. Good health, loving children, many friends. Now my problem: ' when I type t ar' I get a 'segmentation error' I thought, maybe there is an error in tar, so I copied it from another installation. Same error. Does it sound familiar to somebody? -- Roland Brouwers -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
