Package: dar Version: 2.4.0-1 Severity: important As of today, dar in sid refuses to create encrypted backups:
root@usha:~# dar -g tmp -c foo -N -K foo Aborting program. The requested operation needs a feature that has been disabled at compilation time: Missing strong encryption support (libgcrypt) It was working about 1 month ago and for sure it works in Squeeze --- I routinely backup Squeeze machines with dar and I do that with encrypted backups produced by dar itself. Is strong encryption support gone for good? Debian's changelog doesn't mention that so it might be a default change happened upstream at compile time? (sorry, I haven't checked). Is it possible to have back strong encryption support in Debian's dar? Many thanks in advance, and thanks for maintaining dar!
