Backup and Restore Application

Edit Package dar

Dar (Disk Archive) is a hardware-independent backup solution. Dar uses
catalogs (unlike tar),which it makes it possible to extract a single
file without having to read the entire archive. It is also possible to
create incremental backups. Dar archives can also be created or used
with the libdar library (for example, with KDar, a KDE application).
This package contains the command line tools and documentation.

- Enable curl and rsync support

- update to 2.6.13: 
  - fixed compilation warning in testing routine (outside libdar and dar)
  - due to change in autoconf, the --sysconfdir path (which defaults to
    ${prefix}/etc) was read as an empty string, leading dar to look for
    darrc system file at the root of the filesystem (/darrc)
  - fixed bug that should occur in extremely rare conditions (it has been
    discover during 2.7.0 validation process): compression must be used,
    no ciphering, no hashing, file changed at backup time or had a poor
    compression ratio, was not saved at slice boundary, the previous
    entry had an EA saved but no FSA or an unchanged FSA. In such
    conditions are all met, dar tries to resave the file in place, but
    partially or totally overwites the EAs of the previous entry leading
    to archive testing to fail for these EA (though the archive could be
    finished without error).
  - fixed bug met when case insensitive mask is requested (-an option)
    and locale of file to restore or backup is not the one the dar binary
    is run with.
