Hello Walter,
Thanks for filling the bug and helping in making the Ubuntu server
better.
However, if I get everything right, I think you're mistaken about how it
works and I am sorry but what you're trying to do is not correct! You
cannot just decide to take one of the package from another release and
the other from another release. That is not how it works, I am afraid :/
If you do a fresh installation of rsync on Groovy, everything works
fine! See here:
$ lxc launch images:ubuntu/groovy groovy-rsync
$ lxc shell groovy-rsync
# apt update && apt install rsync
### here you'll see that the right version of libxxhash gets installed.
(cf: `Setting up libxxhash0:amd64 (0.8.0-1ubuntu1.20.10.1) ...)
# ls -lah /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxxhash.so.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Jan 12 11:17 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libxxhash.so.0
-> libxxhash.so.0.8.0
...which is linked against the right version. Further libxxhash-
dev/0.8.0-1 is not in Focal but in Groovy, so the patch will not be
right to apply in Focal. That said, I agree that it'd have been nice to
have that version constraints but I don't see this as something that'd
cause problems unless somebody tries to do some sort of manual
intervention. :)
Given this, I am inclined towards believing that this is not really a
bug in rsync but a "local" issue (that is, manually installing a version
of rsync from Groovy to Focal and expecting it to work w/ libxxhash-
dev). So I am setting this to "Incomplete" for now, leaving some space
for discussion - in case I wrongly interpreted your problem and thus
this report.
But should you feel that it's still a bug, please set the status back to
"New" along with some reasoning (and hopefully a reproducer!) as to why
you think that it's indeed a bug rather than a local issue. Thank you,
again! \o/
** Changed in: rsync (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete
