Arch Linux User Repository

Phantastic work, many thanks - as always!
While being there and testing I did this also on my RPi400/aarch64 which went fine. Yeah!

Thanks for the hint, while at it, I pushed a package update based on 3.3.4, not much changed w.r.t. client feature-wise, but it should not hurt to avoid a too big gap with upstream here.

The package "fuse" got an update and therefore pbc needs to be recompiled.
Would it be a wise idea just to increment this package to 3.3.2-4 to force people to recompile pbc before they are trusting their now not-working background backups blindly?

@OJaksch: Thanks for your feedback, great to hear that it works now.

The warning is expected with newer rustc versions, but nothing to worry about and also happens on x86-64, we will improve the code style here probably soonish to avoid the warning.

Of course, friend. Just compiled it on my RPi400 w/o any problems now.
There is a security warning that I don't know if it is relevant.

@OJaksch: argh, I made a stupid mistake, can you please retry the just pushed 3.3.2-3 version?

Thanks, but no, same error:

@OJaksch: Thanks for the report, I made a patch that should fix this, but I had no aarch64 host around to actually test it, so YMMW.

It's me again and compiling on aarch64 is failing again:

To everyone who is using this great tool together with an uptodate PBS and isn't aware of the new features:
