Unarchive question

Is there a way to tell unarchive to use /usr/gny/bin/tar instead of /usr/bin/tar?

Because the latter does not work on Solaris 11.

Thanks

Currently, there is no option for that module to specify the remote binary to use. In order to work around this, I would recommend creating a symlink on that system so that /usr/bin/tar points to the correct binary you’d like to use.

If you’d like, you can definitely also open a feature request on GitHub to add this parameter to the module.

Thanks!
