[GRASS5] Again Solaris/tar/Makefile problem

[Federico Ponchio]

Hi,
	i finally got the Makefile (i have not easy access to the solaris
machine, sorry for being late).
This is the line working for me:

${SHEL} -c "cd ${GISBASE} ; tar cBf - bin | (cd ${INST_DIR} ; tar xBf - )
; true"

Notice the missing slash after bin. That was the problem. How silly.

Federico.
