tar - GNU file archiving program

Website: https://www.gnu.org/software/tar/
License: GPL-3.0-or-later
Vendor: Alcance Libre, Inc.
Description:
The GNU tar program saves many files together in one archive and can
restore individual files (or all of the files) from that archive. Tar
can also be used to add supplemental files to an archive and to update
or list files in the archive. Tar includes multivolume support,
automatic archive compression/decompression, the ability to perform
remote archives, and the ability to perform incremental and full
backups.

If you want to use tar for remote backups, you also need to install
the rmt package on the remote box.

tar-1.35-4.aldos.x86_64 [681 KiB] Changelog by Joel Barrios (2026-01-05):
- Revert "Fix savannah bug #63567". Commit e89c7a45eb broke deletion
  from archives. The reported number of bytes read is rounded to the
  nearest record anyway, revert the commit and document the fact. See:
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2230127
- Add symlinks for tar and gtar into %{_bindir}, for compatibility
  with any future bash script using filesystem 3.x.
