Sure gnu tar was there at 7.1 .. they've stashed the repos somewhere, but
they're accessible. Someone on Ryver will know the URL.

You have the wrong tar command /usr/bin/tar

You want /QOpenSys/pkgs/bin/tar

To take it a step further, for those who haven't been following open source
on PASE too closely, you should always favor the /QOpenSys/pkgs/bin version
of anything, where available. It's going to be the best supported, and it's
going to behave the closest to modern "mainstream" Unix/Linux.

And if something you want isn't in /QOpenSys/pkgs/bin, check yum or ACS to
see if it is available. There's always a chance IBM has added it since you
last checked.
