FreeBSD zottel2.foo.de 4.11-STABLE FreeBSD 4.11-STABLE #52: Fri Jun  2 13:15:36 CEST 2006     root at zottel2.foo.de:/usr/src/sys/compile/ZOTTLE2  i386
>Description:
/usr/ports/graphics/linux_dri (6.5)
is needed by /usr/ports/astro/google-earth
a make in google-eath results in an Error:

===>  Extracting for linux_dri-6.5
=> MD5 Checksum OK for Mesa-linux-bin-6.5.tar.bz2.
=> MD5 Checksum OK for linux-libglide.tar.gz.
=> MD5 Checksum OK for linux-dri-tools.tar.gz.
/usr/bin/tar: This does not look like a tar archive
/usr/bin/tar: Skipping to next header
/usr/bin/tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
/usr/bin/tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
*** Error code 1
Stop in /usr/ports/graphics/linux_dri.
*** Error code 1

The Voodoo is that you can copy linux-dri-tools.tar.gz to e.g.
/var/tmp and extract it with tar without any problem. All the tree
included tarballs can be extracted by tar as well.
But not via make. And a make in the ports never had given me such an error message.
This is Voodoo.
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/ports/astro/google-earth
make
(if using an i386, linux_dri doesn't build on a amd64)
>Fix:
Another Voodoo spell?
