#40424 new update

dd_rescue @1.14: Update to 1.99.5

Reported by: cooljeanius (Eric Gallager) Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version:
Keywords: Cc: Ionic (Mihai Moldovan), jere@…, petrrr
Port: dd_rescue

Description

See http://www.garloff.de/kurt/linux/ddrescue/ for a list of versions. I'd verify with livecheck, but that's broken:

Local-Admins-MacBook-Pro:~ root# port -v livecheck dd_rescue
Error: cannot check if dd_rescue was updated (The requested URL returned error: 406)

Also note that this is the version with the underscore in its name, not GNU ddrescue. The port description might want to clarify the differences between the two. The webpage linked above has this to say about the differences between the two:

Meanwhile, the tool GNU ddrescue has been developed and supercedes some of dd_rescue's functionality for what it was originally designed for. It's still useful though for some special features, such as direct IO, sparse copies, safe deletion (with a fast userspace pseudo random number generator), splice copies, preallocation ...

(cc-ing Ionic because we were talking about this in IRC, and raimue, because he's the maintainer of the GNU ddrescue port, which this port might get confused with)

This is still pending. Is the maintainer still active?
