[Buildroot] [PATCH v2 next] package/tar: bump target version to 1.32 (host is kept at 1.29)

[unixmania at gmail.com]

From: LUC CRETI <luc.creti@atos.net>

The host tar is used to create the archives in the VCS download backends
(git, cvs, svn, hg...) and tar 1.30 and forward have changed the way
they generate the archives.

So, all the archives that have been generated before 1.30 was released
are not bit-for-bit reproducible (even though the extracted content
would be), so the hashes we have for those archives would not match.

Hence host-tar must be kept at version 1.29.

For the target variant, this is less important, so bump it to the latest
version.

Fixes: https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=12256

Would be nicer to have a author name capitalized in a more traditional
way, i.e "Luc Creti"

This hash is no longer needed I believe.

Spaces around = sign.

Maybe we should take this opportunity (or the opportunity of another
commit) to add a comment in the .mk file that explains why the host-tar
package is kept at 1.29 and not bumped to any higher version ?

Best regards,

Thomas

I left leave the name as it was in the original patch, since I don't
know the author and maybe he prefers his name written that way. There
are other caes, e.g. Yann E. MORIN.

Hum, shouldn't check-package detect this?

Sure, I will add the comment.
