<para>The Tar package provides the ability to create tar archives as well

as perform various other kinds of archive manipulation. Tar can be used on
|
|
previously created archives to extract files, to store additional files, or

to update or list files which were already stored. </para>

<para>This forces the test for <function>mknod</function> to be run

as <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem>.

It is generally considered dangerous to run this test as

the <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user, but as it
|
|
is being run on a system that has only been
|

partially built, overriding it is OK.</para>
