Re: tar's on DragonFly

:For some unknown reason both libarchive tar and gtar are broken on 
:DragonFly - they are preserving permissions of extracted files (like in 
:case of -p) if executed by root.

:It doesn't seem to affect a lot of cases (you rarely run tar as root etc), 
:but breaks hell a lot of pkgsrc packages.

    Is pkgsrc using the system tar or the tar from /usr/pkg?  If the
    tar used is under pkgsrc's control then it needs to be patched
    in pkgsrc, I guess.
