app-arch/tar-1.28 fails to build on OS X because it is not respecting -xattr.

Comment 3 iloveosxzfs 2014-07-29 07:15:10 UTC 
A simple workaround is to move /usr/include/sys/xattr.h somewhere else while building tar-1.28.

For instance,
sudo mv /usr/include/sys/xattr.h /usr/include/sys/xattr.h.disabled
emerge tar
sudo mv /usr/include/sys/xattr.h.disabled /usr/include/sys/xattr.h

Or you can mask tar-1.28
echo '=app-arch/tar-1.28' >> etc/portage/package.mask

SΩame issue on Mac OS X Yosemite, masking provides a proper workaround.

Same on Lion
Comment 6 Fabian Groffen gentoo-dev 2014-08-12 07:14:22 UTC 
masked on OSX at last
