I am using backup2l with self-made DRIVER_RAR that uses rar to compress files.
Unfortunately rar is solid mode does not preserve file order but it sorts files
to exploit similarities between files of the same "type". This cases backup2l
to report thousands of errors while checking the TOC of archived backup. The
trivial patch below works for me - it sorts both original list and the list
returned from $CREATE_DRIVER -toc and then diffs them. I've actually used it
for long enough to forget about this patch and be surprised when it broke after
upgrade, so I am not sure if I recreated exactly the patch that worked for me
so perfectly :)
