Description of problem: Can you please add this patch: patches/copy-devices.diff as a part of binary rpm? This patch is already in src.rpm (in patches tar). This patch allows rsyncing device content, instead of default device special device. I need this option in my project, which backup systems over network and can rsync device content with only minimal changes. This change can significatly increase speed of my script, which currently need to copy everything (dd) over network. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rsync-3.0.5-1.fc10.i386 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. rsync --copy-devices Actual results: rsync: --copy-devices: unknown option rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at main.c(1423) [client=3.0.5] :-) Expected results: Working device rsync copy. Additional info: Please, if possible, do this change for F9 and F10 too, not only for rawhide. To apply this patch, it's enough to add this line after your patches: patch -p1 -i patches/copy-devices.diff
Simo, is there something wrong with this patch? If not and you are too busy, I can apply it in fedora CVS.
please feel free to do it, I am a bit busy these days.
