Sorry about that. - -I've responded by e-mail to the patches. Summary: I'm happy to accept patches for portability, but since I don't run FreeBSD (or the kFreeBSD kernel on Debian), I want the patches to apply cleanly and be otherwise acceptable: if I need to hack on the patches to make them acceptable to me, I don't know if they'll work for FreeBSD anymore. These patches achieved portability by disabling tests and features on Linux, which is not acceptable, so now I'm waiting for updated patches. - -Meanwhile, since this is best handled via e-mail (since patches can't be attached here), I'll mark this -bug as [[done]]. - ----- - -Could these patches be made public? I'd like to get obnam working on my FreeBSD server doing its backups and minimizing duplication of work would be ideal. Thanks. -- mathstuf - ---- - -I'm afraid the patches were not particularly useful as a basis for further work. Most of them -concentrated on disabling features or functionality for everyone, which is not how porting -should happen. You'd be better off grabbing the current version of Obnam and its -dependencies and running "./check" in the Obnam source tree. --liw |
