>Description:
When updation Postgresql, installation of postgresql-client fails when
trying to untar files:

gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/pkgsrc/databases/postgresql-client/work.i386/postgresql-7.2.3/src/bin/pg_encoding'
/usr/bin/sed -e "s|^#.*||" /usr/pkgsrc/databases/postgresql-client/files/exclude | /bin/tar zxCXf /usr/local/man - /usr/pkgsrc/databases/postgresql-client/work.i386/postgresql-7.2.3/doc/man.tar.gz
tar: can not open -: No such file or directory
Usage: tar [-]{crtux}[-befhmopqvwzHLOPXZ014578] [archive] [blocksize]
           [-C directory] [-T file] [-s replstr] [file ...]
*** Error code 1

>How-To-Repeat:
Cf. supra
>Fix:
As i think it's related to the recent replacement of GNU tar by pax,
i've installed gtar from pkgsrc tree, then change the postgresql-client
Makefile to replace ${GTAR} by gtar. It fixes the problem.
