BackupPC community,
I'm pleased to announce that BackupPC 4.0.0alpha1 has been released on
SourceForge at:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/backuppc/files/backuppc-beta/4.0.0alpha1/
BackupPC 4.0.0alpha1 contains a few bug fixes since BackupPC 4.0.0alpha0
was released just over a week ago. If you are testing BackupPC 4.0.0alpha0,
I recommend you upgrade.
Each of the three packages in the release has been updated. You should
upgrade all three packages:
- BackupPC-4.0.0alpha1.tar.gz: the usual BackupPC release tar ball.
- BackupPC-XS-0.10.tar.gz: a perl XS module with C code that replaces
several BackupPC perl libraries for improved performance.
- rsync-bpc-3.0.9.1.tar.gz: a modified rsync that runs on the server that
has a shim layer that interfaces directly to the BackupPC file system.
As before, I do not recommend using this release in any production
environment. Having some people try it out in a sandbox in their
environment would be very helpful
I'm attaching some short notes on the build/install steps for each package.
Craig
BackupPC-XS-0.10.tar.gz:
tar zxvf BackupPC-XS-0.10.tar.gz
cd BackupPC-XS-0.10
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install
rsync-bpc-3.0.9.1.tar.gz:
tar zxvf rsync-bpc-3.0.9.1.tar.gz
cd rsync-bpc-3.0.9.1
./configure.sh
make
make install
BackupPC-4.0.0alpha1.tar.gz:
tar zxvf BackupPC-4.0.0alpha1.tar.gz
cd BackupPC-4.0.0alpha1
./configure.pl
The last step for each will need to be run as a privileged user.
If you want to install rsync_bpc in /usr/local/bin (default might be
/usr/bin), then you should add the --prefix option to configure.sh:
./configure.sh --prefix=/usr/local
