Nothing prevents you from making a "rsyncx" package, though, if it is a command line app. If it is a Mac OS X GUI app (Cocoa/Carbon), it shouldn't be package via Fink. In any case the original rsync package will stay, too, for people who have to use the original version for various reasons. >- case this is just because noone has put it into fink yet (or was aware >of the need), what is the protocol to get it into fink? It's all documented on the Fink web page.
