Comment(by richard.maynard@…):

 I somehow missed seeing gnutar becuause I did search for it to see if it
 would help. I'm very new to OSX so, sorry about that.

 Ideally the port would be updated to require gnutar on the system. Since
 it comes packaged named gnutar I attached a patch that updates build.c to
 use gnutar. Seems pretty straight forward and will make building DPKG's
 possible easily.
