seeking example for port who moves only some files

[Salvatore Domenick Desiano]

o I've never seen this before.  Does anyone know what would cause this error
o on OS X?

On Tiger, at least, gnutar and tar are the same program and don't 
actually seem to be gnutar (they lack many of the options). So, if 
someone has the gnutar port installed and ahead of /usr/bin, the port is 
good to go. If not, you'll get the error you saw.

o Gruss,
o 
o These MacPorts:
o 
o base
o nedi
o 
o are two examples of mine.  Also, if there are few directories to copy and
o no nested directories, it just takes two statements per path in a destroot
o phase.
o 
o xintall -d -m 755 ${worksrcpath}/path1   ${destroot}/path1
o eval  xintall -m 755 [glob ${worksrcpath}/path1/*.pl]  ${destroot}/path1
o 
o I think I made the nedi use gnutar because I thought maybe mimicking what
o happens automatically in the extract phase would be good.   But I don't
o know, recently learned that someone got this:
