Hi,

I'm very interested in testing out the backup client for a number of servers mostly ubuntu 16.04/18.04. To be clear, to back up the linux file system (specific directories) to backup server (they are not running proxmox)

How can I get access to the source to build the client so I can evaluate?

Hi,

We host all of our sources over at: https://git.proxmox.com/
The Proxmox Backup Client and Server live in https://git.proxmox.com/?p=proxmox-backup.git;a=summary

Dominik and I already made a package for the Arch Linux user repo (AUR), we may see if we do an Ubuntu PPA in the future.
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/proxmox-backup-client/
You could either go the same route as we went there and replace the packaged rust source dependencies with pointing directly to git,
or as you use Ubuntu, you could try using the devel repository deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/devel/ buster main, install the build dependencies from there (they are mostly source only, so should work on both 16.04 and 18.04) and use the make deb target.

Hi Thomas,

Thank you for that. I went with the patch applied to master (commit 6fd129844dae9da6fa0b0729cad1953021ee2ada (HEAD -> master, origin/master, origin/HEAD))

I had to install libudev-dev and libapt-pkg-dev (just using apt install on ubuntu 18.04) but then I ran into this I'm on rustc 1.48.0-nightly (73dc675b9 2020-09-06)

Not sure its related, but in case it is, this is what apt installed for the following:

libapt-pkg-dev/bionic-updates,bionic-security,now 1.6.12ubuntu0.1 amd64 [installed]
libapt-pkg5.0/bionic-updates,bionic-security,now 1.6.12ubuntu0.1 amd64 [installed]

Cargo.toml has this after the patch applied
[dependencies]
apt-pkg-native = "0.3.1" # custom patched version

^ maybe this needs to point to a custom git also?

If I use stable (rustc 1.43.1 (8d69840ab 2020-05-04)) instead of nightly the error is different:

Hi Thomas,

Some progress. Had to install more packages:
- compile libfuse3 manually (ubuntu 18 only has v2)
- libacl1-dev, libpam-dev, uuid-dev


but now getting this:

EDIT: It actually built proxmox-backup-client, so it may be okay. I'll have to test it later to know for sure.

Is there any documentation on how to use this? I am not sure what [OPTIONS] are supposed to be for like.. status and to perform a backup
