Thanks Eric and Patrik.
Patrik, on a client (running Ubuntu 22.04) I added your repo (for
rdiffweb) per the instructions at your website (option 1), but running
apt upgrade I don't see an upgrade available for rdiff-backup (from
v2.0.5), do I need to do something else?

Or you could use one of my unofficial rdiff-backup package compiled for
most debian flavour.

You can follow instructions to install APT repo from rdiffweb documentation.

Hi Dominic,
Mixing 2.2.x shouldn't be an issue unless you hit one of the issues listed
in the changelog.
Regarding PPA, Otto announced a long time ago that he needs
co-maintainers. Volunteers are required to take on the task.
Without this, your option is to use pip to install rdiff-backup as
described in the main README.
Hope this helps, Eric

First, continued thanks for Eric and the team for their great work on
updating rdiff-backup - really amazing stuff.
Following a system upgrade of my backup server to Ubuntu 23.10, I have
version mismatches: clients have (Windows and) Ubuntu 22.04 (rdiff-backup
2.0.5) whereas the server has rdiff-backup 2.2.2.
I realise that I can upgrade Windows just by changing the .exe file, but
is there a way to upgrade rdiff-backup on Ubuntu 22.04 from the standard
2.0.5 to 2.2.2 or indeed to the current latest'n'greatest 2.2.6 (and should
I expect any problems if I have the latter on a client and 2.2.2 on the
server)? I was hoping for a PPA offering this, but I can't find one :(
Dominic
