You're right, I was looking on an RHS box. I wonder why SuSE didn't include it? Tar is never out of date.
But its manpage is. Red Hat just include an old man page, not an up-to-date one.
The documentation for tar is now found with 'info tar' or 'tar --help |less' as someone mentioned earlier.
There's been a lot of confusion about this in the past...
The question is whether an out-of-date man page is better than none at all. I think it is, particularly since the old options almost always work, but opinions may differ.
