Just out of curiosity, what version of Linux is used here? As the tar in Ubuntu Linux has -y option supported.

12.04 which is quite old, but it'd be nice if a test was added to configure in order to fail more verbosely and earlier. 14.04 fails due to other reasons on travis which I might sort out soon.

You can find more information about the OS in the collapsed first lines of output provided at the linked log.

I have added checking for tar flags enabling bzip2 compression, that solves this issue. Thank you for reporting!
