    initial v1  
    1 A different solution to the tar issue would be to add `alias tar='gnutar'` to your `.bashrc` (as explained in the stack overflow post). This will not affect different unrelated programs (liek the `$PATH` change does), but doesn't work for scripts and binaries using `/usr/bin/tar` (but those should check anyway whether they're dealing with GNU or BSD tar).
