I recently built an rpm package for 3.3.0 on Mageia-3. Went like a charm - using the config script from the 3.3.0 tarball - keeping the patch for the workaround against the perl suid problem. My build is local (not yet in the official Mageia repositories) since I did it in preparation of the backuppc package for the upcoming Mageia-4 release. In case you want to have the specfile, say so. When installing the 3.3.0 rpm package, to keep your data: - evidently, use your personalised backuppc/config.pl file; I kept the config.pl file I had used in 3.2.1 (and earlier releases) - might be good to verify if there are items to be adapted, but worked ok without such a verification - work still to do, - make sure that the contents of the file backuppc/host are not modified - make sure that the backuppc/pc directory and its files are not modified ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LIMITED TIME SALE - Full Year of Microsoft Training For Just $49.99! 1,500+ hours of tutorials including VisualStudio 2012, Windows 8, SharePoint 2013, SQL 2012, MVC 4, more.
