Hello @janreges and mennojansz! The code base has been rewritten for Python 3 and there will be no further releases for the 1.x series in Python 2 anymore. Could you...

Sent a reminder to @hstock about this. We are also waiting for [Ubuntu](https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/librsync/+bug/1839846) to sync [librsync](https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/librsync) v2 to Eoan. For that I have contacted @rbalint.

Seems Travis-CI has Launchpad integration, se we could automatically push to a PPA on each master branch build in the future: https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/deployment/launchpad/

Ack. Duplicity seems to be a slight mess, has a [huge delta](https://patches.ubuntu.com/d/duplicity/duplicity_0.7.18.2-1ubuntu3.1.patch) between Ubuntu and Debian so I will personally not get involved in Duplicity packaging ATM.

@ikus060: We should focus on delivering a rdiff-backup that is well tested. A PPA that offers the nightly build in an easy to install format will increase the number of...

You can test this now at: ``` sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup-development sudo apt-get update ``` Based on work in #224 and recipe at https://code.launchpad.net/~rdiff-backup/+recipe/rdiff-backup-git-master

The PPA references the master branch now and everything seems to be working and running as it should. I've also updated the metadata for https://launchpad.net/rdiff-backup, so all on Launchpad is...

Reopening since the automation did not eventually work as intended. Current status: https://code.launchpad.net/~rdiff-backup/+recipe/rdiff-backup-git-master Will work on this later. The #265 needs to merged first.

New version drafted in #265. To finalize it I need to figure out how Travis-CI could safely be allowed to commit and force push on branch 'ubuntu-ppa'. Or figure out...
