in thread Module make problems caused by Mac OS metadata files

hmm.. no flag, eh? could it be as simple as just removing (note: i didn't test my --delete syntax) the files from the archive? was does this show as the list? 
tar cvf test.tar Makefile.PL
tar --delete -vf test.tar ._Makefile.PL   # any error??
tar tf test.tar                           # is it still there?

    Thanks, that works. So my improved workaround now becomes to "clean" the tar file before shipping it.
