[Bug 1934992] Re: rsync 3.2.x in Groovy depends on broken libxxhash 0.7.x

2021-07-09 Thread Wayne Davison
Anyone who has an rsync that supports the xxh128 hash using the xxhash 0.7 library did something very bad in their build. An rsync compiled with that library only supports xxh64 & xxh32. Thus, this described mismatch never occurs in a stock rsync (the 128-bit hash was unstable in xxhash 0.7, and

To be clear, if you have xxhash 0.7 and "rsync -V" reports xxh128 in the checksum list, fix the rsync build by getting rid of any patch that enabled that unsupported hash. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.

You misread my comments. It's only the 128-bit hash that depends on 0.8.0. The 0.7 version works fine with rsync, giving it the 64-bit and 32-bit hashes. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.
