I have hard disk backups setup using amanda on Fedora Core 3.  Everything is
great except when I use amrecover.  Trying to restore an old file I will get tar
errors like this:

tar: ./dir/somefile: invalid sparse archive member
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers

Do I need to dump the vanilla tar (1.14.4), and compile from a special source
version for amanda to work with tar backups?
