[rdiff-backup-users] Problem with compilation on FreeBSD

[Gatis Gailis]

Hello, I want to try rdiff-backup but I can get it installed for few days.

I am running FreeBSD 4.5. Downloaded librsync 0.9.5.1 and compiled from
source, no errors. Then I installed Python 2.2.1, first from source. When
running python Setup.py install, it gave me error like that and exited.

***********************************************************
Looks like problem is with librsync. So I reinstalled it a few times. Then
deinstalled Python (make deinstall && make clean) and installed from ports.
I don't have any more ideas. What could be wrong? FreeBSD ir POSIX compliant
OS, isn't it?
