I didn’t know about openrsync until recently — been using rsync for years and somehow missed it!

openrsync is a lightweight rsync replacement developed by the OpenBSD team.
It focuses on security, simplicity, and a small footprint.

While not yet feature-complete compared to GNU rsync, it supports common
use cases like recursive copying, preserving permissions, and syncing over SSH.

Originally introduced in OpenBSD 6.5 (May 2019)

Thinking about writing a SlackBuild for it — I’ll give it a proper test first. 🙂

Thanks to a helpful suggestion from ryandesign, I modified the Portfile to stop passing the --prefix styled parameter using your suggestion for the oconfigure style and submitted a Pull Request to add openrsync to MacPorts here:

https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/28096

GitHub Continuous Integration checks passed OK!

Here's hoping it gets merged without issues (I included some of the warnings from running %port test and maybe some other MacPorts contributors will have some helpful suggestions for clearing those up too).

Regardless, thank you for your efforts! I'm grateful to be able to downstream it in my own limited capacities. I realize, not as helpful as it might be if Apple were more collaborative, but who knows wtfh Tim "Apple" is up to besides removing headphone jacks and selling off stocks and racing devices out of India before tariffs impact their bottom line, or whatever it is that they do in Cupertino.

Just read a nice serie of blogposts about installing #freebsd on a laptop by @sgharms :

At the same time, I’m finishing reading cover to cover the excellent Absolute FreeBSD by the legendary @mwl

While I’m not much into the file systems, I do really appreciate all the explanations about packages, ports and poudriere.

I hope he will release a new edition of Absolute OpenBSD so I can compare both systems.

I don’t know why but I feel that #OpenBSD is more minimalistic

@thejvmbender I'm a #BSD lover myself, all hail #Puffy but I miss Red Hat, SUSE, and Mandrake. How did Linux completely collapse and die off from 25 years ago? Maybe it was more purist, it was from people who love network technologies, and now Linux is all ideologues, have dumbed it down, and want easy code, not what is correct. #OpenBSD
