actually, I have :

>>> Recording net-firewall/iptables in "world" favorites file...

 * GNU info directory index is up-to-date.

* <<< Callback exit status: 0

tar: Bad Option: -jxpf.

Use     tar -help
and     tar -xhelp
to get a list of valid cmds and options.

Use     tar H=help
to get a list of valid archive header formats.

Use     tar diffopts=help
to get a list of valid diff options.
