tar command not found when executing make in extras/contrib
Posted: 10 May 2008 08:57
Hello,
I am running Leopard (although my user account was originally set up in Jaguar), have what I believe to the latest Xcode, X11, fink, git, SVN...
Following the instructions from http://wiki.videolan.org/OSXCompile I have obtained vlc via git, commented out the line in .cshrc to disable fink, restarted Terminal, run the bootstrap under extras/contrib, but when i try to make, I get:
Even if I don't disable fink, the result appears to be the same, although I can run the tar command from terminal without a problem. Any ideas?
