Does anyone have information on the status of the afbackup package?
Its way out of date (with a rather severe bug that can cause data
loss). Is this package orphaned? There are many bugs filed against
it and the maintainer does not respond to email. (I posted a query to
the afbackup email list and apparently others have tried to contact
the package maintainer without success.)
It's not listed as being orphaned (http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp),
but you're right, it's way out of date. Too bad. I supposed I'll have
to install it from source into /usr/local.
I like afbackup. The documentation isn't great, but I need a
client-server model for my little home LAN and Amanda seems sort of
daunting for a little 2-3 PC home LAN.
