For anybody trying to build a static binary: Thanks to Han Boetes for the post here, advising to use musl. Thanks to Florian Dejonckheere for posting this script: https://github.com/JBBgameich/rsync-static
Here is my small contrib on this, for the lazy folks. I download the musl prebuild binaries for my arch from skarnet.org/toolchains My script is posted here: https://github.com/nwaizer/rsync-static/blob/main/build_static.sh or below: #!/bin/bash # based on the solution by Florian Dejonckheere < flor...@floriandejonckheere.be> # at https://github.com/JBBgameich/rsync-static mkdir toolchain echo "I: Downloading prebuilt toolchain" wget --continue https://skarnet.org/toolchains/native/x86_64-linux-musl_pc-11.3.0.tar.xz -O /tmp/x86_64-linux-musl_pc.tar.xz|| echo "Failed to find x86_64-linux-musl_pc-11.3.0.tar.xz. Please open your browser at https://skarnet.org/toolchains/native and find the correct file to fix this" tar -xf /tmp/x86_64-linux-musl_pc.tar.xz -C toolchain echo "Native compiler is called gcc" TOOLCHAIN_PATH="$(readlink -f $(dirname $(find . -name "gcc"))/..)" echo "Use local gcc instead of the OS installed one" export PATH=$TOOLCHAIN_PATH/bin:$PATH echo "Get rsync source" git clone https://github.com/WayneD/rsync.git echo "Build rsync" cd rsync/ make clean export CC="gcc" echo "Disable openssl xxhash zstd and lz4 as they did not configure even after consulting the INSTALL" ./configure CFLAGS="-static" --host="x86" --disable-openssl --disable-xxhash --disable-zstd --disable-lz4 make strip rsync Thanks for rsync, Niv
