CentOS 5.6 Update Version Of Tar
I am running CentOS 5.6 and for some ungodly reason, the version of tar is from 2004, and not compatible with the node package manager (NPM). How in the world can I update it? Is there an additional yum repository I can add, so I can simply execute yum update tar.
The CentOS6 package fails dependencies on 5.6, so, you probably will need to build it yourself, either nicely packaged or not. I don't seen an updated "tar" package up at Dag or Karan.
