Description Joe Julian 2011-10-01 17:37:11 UTC 
The RHEL/CentOS 5 distros ship 3.0.6 as the latest update. Many admins shy-away from adding 3rd party repos if they don't have to (and will get serious hate and discontent if they try getting help in #centos if they do). Looking through the 3.0.7 release notes, I don't see anything that should be critical for making geo-replicate work. 

Can this version requirement be downgraded to 3.0.6?

In fact, what we know of as a strict version requirement is >= 3.0.0. We used 3.0.7 in the spec file due to Q/A reasons: that's the rsync version we did extensive testing with and we know it works.

We'll investigate the issue and see if we can lower the version.
