Hello ! for the moment i have no suitable debian system for testing around, but this one (see below) is an important bugfixed version of librsync and also rdiff-backup, countaining a patch which fixes a >4gb file problem.
maybe some candidate for 0.9 !? (needs testing, though) for details, also see https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1439412&group_id=56125&atid=479441 librsync folks still didn`t do a new librsync release because the maintainers seem to have more important to do with their other projects ;) regards roland > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: Faheem Mitha <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Gesendet: 10.11.06 20:10:57 > An: [email protected] > Betreff: [rdiff-backup-users] Debian debs with patch fix for #355178 > > Hi everyone, > > I just ran into Debian bug #355178, reported by Dean Gaudet.
