I would like to know if anybody is working on this. There has been a recent update of perl-base from 5.28 to 5.30 which necessitated rebuilding the backuppc and backuppc-xs (now libbackuppc-xs-perl) packages. The most recent backuppc version is now 4.3.1 and each time a new release of any of packages comes out it necessitates rebuilding the packages per
https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc/wiki/Build-Your-Own-Packages. Now today on testing yet another perl-base upgrade from 5.30.0-8 to 5.30.0-9 has come along, and I just got done with the a somewhat stressful rebuild for 5.30.0-8. For what it's worth, the rsync-bpc on my server is version 3.0.9.12 which has worked with v4.2, v4.3 and v4.3.1 of backuppc. This bug is listed as a packaging blocker for https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=873075 but it seems like it could be packaged up so progress can be made on packaging backuppc-v4 proper.
