rsync-backup for armv6/armv7
« on: December 14, 2015, 09:13:02 PM »
Hi,

I can see rsync-backup is available for x86, could you please make this package available for armv6/armv7? It is written in Python but uses some shared libraries that need to be compiled for each arch.

Cheers!

Are you talking about rsync or rdiff-backup ?

I'm not sure I've ever heard of rsync-backup.

Sorry I meant rdiff-backup, the one that uses librsync. :-[

Thanks for clarifying.

I've only ever prepared packages for tinycore on x86

So I am making an assumption that I would need to compile and test on armv6/armv7 system to make sure it works ?

Can someone set me straight here ?

I will see if I can find the x86 source for rdiff-backup.

Thanks remus.

I can either do the build or I can give you access to machines suitable to build on.

Cheers
