New comment by q66 on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/18692#issuecomment-582532048 Comment: The problem here is that @xtraeme recently made tar an alternative, for both bsdtar and GNU tar (whose binary is now called gtar)- As bsdtar is a bootstrap package, the alternative is set to it by default, and it will not switch anything when you install GNU tar on top.
