>Description:
Flexbackup doesnt work with FreeBSD tar but yes with GNU gtar from (archivers/gtar), the program use the options "--no-recursion" ands fails with the mesasge :
tar: unrecognized option `--no-recursion'
tar: Unknown option. Use 'tar --help' for a complete list of options.
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to use flexbackup with the option "$type = 'tar';" in the flexbackup.conf
>Fix:
Apply this patch to flexbackup perl script
Todo: add a dependency of gtar in the flexbackup port Makefile
