Hello bsdi gurus.

I have just loaded bsdi 4.0 and compiled perl 5.005_03 without any
problems. I went to apply the mods and I am geting a weird error:

bash-2.03# perl5 M400-001 apply
pax: Options `-Aru' are incompatible with `-f -'
Try `pax --help' for more information.
Fatal error
bash-2.03#


I do not understand what is going on. The ONLY instance of pax in the mod
is:

sub cleanup { system("rm -rf $__dir"); die "Fatal error\n"; }
$SIG{'PIPE'} = 'cleanup'; open(P, "| gunzip | pax $x");
while (<DATA>) { print P unpack("u", $_); } close(P); &cleanup if ($? !=
0);


I do not see where is is getting "-Aru". That string is not in the mod
anywhere.


Thank you for any and all assistance.
