I think you can use rsync 3.1.2, in my git I had a working version
based on 3.1.2:

Hi,

In fact this version of rsync can only work with backuppc.
So I think it would be better to keep this name, to reduce
possible confusions.

Hi !

Yes, I was on the way to upload backuppc v4, but it was too much work
for me... 
I've packaged backuppc-rsync, which is a modified rsync for backuppc v4,
and uploaded it but it was rejected because of copyright issues.
I may try to upload it again before orphaning it...
The source for it is here: https://github.com/ldrolez/backuppc-rsync

Some of the Debian bugs are in fact fixed in v4, that's why I was
working on it.

There's still lots of problem caused by latest samba packages, and
I think that they can only be fixed with patches in smbclient.

Bug#887490: O: backuppc -- high-performance, enterprise-grade system for backing up PCs

2018-01-17 Thread Ludovic Drolez
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Due to lack of time, I intend to orphan the backuppc package.
Maintaining this package requires time and skills. Please only adopt this
package if you will have enough time and attention to work on it.

Ludovic


The package description is:
 BackupPC is disk based and not tape based. This particularity allows
 features not found in any other backup solution:
  * Clever pooling scheme minimizes disk storage and disk I/O.
Identical files across multiple backups of the same or different PC are
stored only once resulting in substantial savings in disk storage and disk
writes. Also known as "data deduplication".
  * Optional compression provides additional reductions in storage.
CPU impact of compression is low since only new files (those not already
in the pool) need to be compressed.
  * A powerful http/cgi user interface allows administrators to view log files,
configuration, current status and allows users to initiate and cancel
backups and browse and restore files from backups very quickly.
  * No client-side software is needed. On WinXX the smb protocol is used.
On Linux or Unix clients, rsync or tar (over ssh/rsh/nfs) can be used
  * Flexible restore options. Single files can be downloaded from any backup
directly from the CGI interface. Zip or Tar archives for selected files
or directories can also be downloaded from the CGI interface.
  * BackupPC supports mobile environments where laptops are only intermittently
connected to the network and have dynamic IP addresses (DHCP).
  * Flexible configuration parameters allow multiple backups to be performed
in parallel.
  * and more to discover in the manual...

Bug#864079: ITP: backuppc-rsync -- rsync optimised for BackupPC backup utility

2017-06-04 Thread Ludovic Drolez
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Ludovic Drolez <ldro...@debian.org>

* Package name: backuppc-rsync
  Version : 3.0.9.7
  Upstream Author : Craig Barratt <cbarr...@users.sourceforge.net>
* URL : https://github.com/backuppc/rsync-bpc
* License : GPL
  Programming Lang: C
  Description : rsync optimised for BackupPC backup utility

Rsync-bpc is a customized version of rsync that is used as part of
BackupPC, an open source backup system.

The main change to rsync is adding a shim layer (in the subdirectory
backuppc, and in bpc_sysCalls.c) that emulates the system calls for
accessing the file system so that rsync can directly read/write files
in BackupPC's format.

 Add one line to your squid.conf and it's installed ! Can also be used by
 an apache2 or polipo proxy. This package contains also files which can

Hello Patrick,

I've just seen your request. I can add you to 'pkg-mc' admins this
evening.
I've set up this repository a few years ago to share the 'debian'
directory with CVS, so all mc modifications can be found in the CVS.

I currently have no more time to maintain this package, and Stefano, 
which is still waiting in the NM queue, could not help me too, so 
I orphan this package. I think that at least two motivated maintainers
are needed for the mc package. A CVS containing the Debian specific 
sources is available on Alioth ('pkg-mc' project).

Hi !

I find very interesting the packaging you begun on OCSinventory. I
just wanted to know if your ocsinventory-server package is nearing
completion ? If not what do you think of Eric DECORNOD's package (sent

In any case I could help for packaging.

Websec is a visual Web page monitoring software. However, it goes
beyond the normal functionalities offered by such software. Not only
does it detect changes based on content analysis (instead of date/time
stamp or simple textual comparison), it will email the changed page to
you with the new content highlighted.

Bug#422298: O: libvncserver

2007-05-04 Thread Ludovic Drolez
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

Libvncserver contains headers and static libraries to write your own
VNC server. In this package, x11vnc, a VNC server which uses your
current X11 session is provided.

With x11vnc you can export your currently running X11 session to any
VNC client. You do not have to launch another session as the regular VNC
server does. So it's very useful, if you want to move to another computer
without having to log out, or to help a distant colleague to solve a problem
with their desktop.

Bug#380999: RFH: mc -- midnight commander - a powerful file manager

2006-08-01 Thread Ludovic Drolez
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal

I request assistance with maintaining the mc package. I'm currently the
only active maintainer for the mc package, and there's around 80 bugs to
fix in the BTS.
Most of the bugs are upstream, so the main tasks would be:
- to check if the bugs in the BTS aren't already fixed
- ask for more information when bugs are not reproductible
- report the upstream bugs to the upstream BTS

There's already a CVS on alioth to ease the collaboration on mc, 
http://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-mc/, but keep in mind that
the current maintaining policy is to keep the number of Debian patches
to mc as low as possible, to make upstream updates as easy as possible.

So to sum up, joining the Debian mc team will be mainly a BTS job (so
you don't even need to be an official Debian Developer).

Cheers,

   Ludovic Drolez.
