[Help-tar] Update versions on FC3

[David Leangen]

Hello!

I apologise for this very basic question... but I'm stuck!

I guess I've got a bit too used to using RPMs on FC... Now, I want to 
update my version of tar to 15.1, which is not available as an RPM.

How do I do this?


I compiled everything, right up to "make install", but it does not 
overwrite my current installation.

I am afraid to remove the tar package because there are so many 
dependencies. At least when I use "yum remove tar", it seems to want to 
remove 80% of my entire system (figure of speach).

I am sure that this must be simple, but could somebody please explain 
what I must do?


Thank you!!!
