Re: [rdiff-backup-users] Reporting update bug for large files in rdiff-backup (>4Gb)

[Gerard van Dijnsen]

Hi,

Well the large file problem in librsync was solved by the maintainers 
themselves as can be seen in 
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=479439&aid=1110812&group_id=56125. 


I have tested it and it seems to work well for files of at least 5 Gb. 
As far as I know, no new release of the library is produced, so you'll 
have to patch manually if you have this problem, but at least it will 
work. One interesting point may be that only the server side needs to be 
patched as far as I can make out. I tested it and both backup and 
restore actions work flawlessly with only the server side patched.

Thanks for your input on this!
Gerard
