creating a tar-1.13 in my path


Hullo everybody

I was installing linux and i got the caution below

WARNING: pkgtools are unstable with tar > 1.13.
You should provide a "tar-1.13" in your $PATH.
Cannot install /media/SlackDVD/slackware*/a/*.txz: file not found

Could someone out there help on this

Thanx

You posted the same question in the Slackware-installation sub-forum, and you are even getting replies to that post.
See http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...-guest-835420/

Why are you starting the same thread again, here (this time not telling that you are installing Slackware in a VM)?

As per Eric's message (above), this thread is closed. Do not post duplicate threads, it is far better netiquette to simply maintain and respond to your original thread. If you believe your thread is in the wrong place, simply hit report and request a move.

That is all.
