Thanks, but I'm trying to figure out why BPC 3.x worked with the stock
OSX rsync and now 4.x doesn't. I really can't install homebrew and a
second rsync on all my OSX machines just for backuppc.
Dear Josh:
I don't see any harm in installing Homebrew (which you can uninstall if
you wish) in order to install rsync. It's not a big bother. I've given
full instructions on how to handle this.
The rsync in osx is so moldy old that any apps that want to use it
incorporate rsync in their packages. For example, Carbon Copy Cloner
incorporates a new version of rsync in its own app contents. This is
because people (rightly) don't trust the version of rsync which apple
continues to bundle with their machines. Apple really isn't that
interested in making their linux fully functional, as long as the BSD
undercarriage works well with their GUI, they are satisfied.
