Newer Versoin Of Tar 1.26 On CentOS 7
Is it possible to find a repository that hold a newer version of tar. The current version is 1.26
I have some students trying to build Yocto project on my CentOS 7 host, but OpenEmbedded reports incompatibility problems with the current version of tar.
I thank you on beforehand for any help.

I have no idea what ‘Yocto’ is, but CentOS 7 includes two other tar utilities: ‘bsdtar’ and ‘star’
Maybe one of those will give you what you need?

Hi James
Yocto is for building custom Linux distributions. It builds on OpenEmbedded.
I’ll give it at try.
Thanks for your reply.

Hello Klaus,
On the other side, building tar from the (latest) sources is quite easy. That’s what I’d do.
