Cannot find static binary described in installation page

Open cuttle opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

https://www.fsarchiver.org/installation/ says there is a static binary, section Installation of the precompiled binary says

There is also an earlier stament: You can also use the static binary that provides support for all compression levels and does not require the libraries to be installed on your system.

All the links igo to from this page lead to https://github.com/fdupoux/fsarchiver/releases where there are no static binaries, I have download tar.gz and taken fsarchiver from it and any attempt to execute gives messages susc as: ./fsarchiver: error while loading shared libraries: libgcrypt.so.11: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory file fsarchiver fsarchiver: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, BuildID[sha1]=c9f5e770c09cef5379eb6af2f6b9d1e044137369, stripped

So it is dynamiclly linked not static.

Wher is there a static binary that can be used with rescue systems that cannot use the dynamic version.

  1. Clonezilla Debian 3.1.1-27 Stable has fsarchiver 0.8.7 build in -- in case you want to go that route since you mentioned rescue systems.
  2. on the https://github.com/fdupoux/fsarchiver/releases page you've linked, v0.8.6 has a an rpm file available -- did you try that one?
