Ken,
Thanks, you pointed me at the requirements.txt AND README.md. My =
unfamiliarity with python thought that was the complete requirements. =
This make more sense. I see you dropped ncftp, it seems lftp is not =
being updated and needs a bit of fixing to compile under more modern =
strict compilers. Personally not a big fan of FTP anyway, but trying to =
support as many backends as possible.
Also this list does not include gpg2? I assume that is a requirement, =
is that part of the =E2=80=9Cbuild-essential=E2=80=9D?
I am trying to parse out 5 groups:
everything essential for running duplicity
everything essential for building duplicity that is not in #1
everything essential for testing duplicity
everything essential for the backends (see list below, which backends =
are not supported in my list?)
everything essential for building the docs (not a big deal, and might =
get around to it)
Below is my trying to combine the requirements you gave, any line that =
begins with an =E2=80=9Ci=E2=80=9D means installed and lists the version =
I have. As you can see =E2=80=9Crclone=E2=80=9D is listed as necessary =
but is that only for some backends? I am running without it but using =
S3 storage. The tests for that don=E2=80=99t seem to complain. Same =
with tzdata but I will get that from PyPi.
Not sure what is in build-essentials. I don=E2=80=99t see that in PyPi =
so I assume it is a debian thing? I just have the fink manager and =
setuptools for building which seems fine.
Thanks,
Scott
