    Didn't work. The -a is an invalid option on Fedora, it seems. I replaced
    it with -cz to create and compress the tar file, but even with that, it goes
    through the list of files (lists them one per line) as if it was actually
    taring them, but the resulting .tar file only has the very LAST file that
    tar listed - and nothing else in it. :-?
