tags 846490 +pending thanks Upstream indicates that there was never a section 5 man page for the tar archive format in the GNU tar sources, thus the "see also" reference to such a page is now removed from the upstream section 1 man page for tar.
I've put an equivalent patch into my source tree and the spurious reference will thus be gone on the next tar package upload to Debian. Thanks for pointing this out. Bdale
