I just released a new patch for BackupPC 2.1.2. This changes the --devices rsync option to -D in config.pl to fix the "fileListReceive failed" bug with recent rsync versions.
This patch includes the earlier fixes in the prior pl1 patch. The patches can be applied to a fresh 2.1.2 release by downloading the single file BackupPC-2.1.2pl2.diff from http://backuppc.sourceforge.net and following the instructions in that file. BackupPC should then be re-installed from the fresh, patched, release. The patched version is reported as "2.1.2pl2". I've attached the cumulative list of issues fixed in the patch. Craig ChangeLog: - In conf/config.pl, changed --devices to -D in $Conf{RsyncArgs} and $Conf{RsyncRestoreArgs} to fix "fileListReceive failed" and "Can't open .../f%2f for empty output" errors with rsync 2.6.7+. Fix proposed by Justin Pessa and Vincent Ho, and confirmed by Dan Niles. - Added patch from Michael (mna.news) to ignore "file is unchanged" message from tar 1.15.x during incremental backups. - Fixed creation of .rsrc directories in bin/BackupPC_tarExtract when used with xtar on MacOS. Reported by Samuel Bancal and Matthew Radey, who helped with debugging. - Fixed bug in BackupPC_tarExtract for files >8GB in size whose lengths are multiples of 256. Reported by Jamie Myers and Marko Tukiainen, who both helped debugging the problem. - Fixed bug in lib/BackupPC/Xfer/RsyncFileIO.pm that caused incorrected deleted attributes to be set in directories where one of the files had an rsync phase 1 retry during an incremental. Reported by Tony Nelson. _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/
