Does anyone know where I can get gtar for the latest version of Leopard?

The tar utility is already included as part of Darwin

Typing tar --version in the terminal yields the following:tar (GNU tar) 1.15.1

If you really want the latest version (v 1.20) , download the source tarball from here:

GNU tar (http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/)

And do the usual configure, make, install sequence to install it on your system. If you need help doing this, let us know.
