Fedora Updated package.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2006-700
2006-06-12
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Product     : Fedora Core 5
Name        : rsync
Version     : 2.6.8
Release     : 1.FC5.1
Summary     : A program for synchronizing files over a network.
Description :
Rsync uses a reliable algorithm to bring remote and host files into
sync very quickly. Rsync is fast because it just sends the differences
in the files over the network instead of sending the complete
files. Rsync is often used as a very powerful mirroring process or
just as a more capable replacement for the rcp command. A technical
report which describes the rsync algorithm is included in this
package.

* Mon Jun 12 2006 Jay Fenlason  2.6.8-1.FC5.1
- Add my xattrs_bug patch to fix a bug where xattrs don't get sent correctly.
- Add BuildRequires to make sure libattr-devel and libacl-devel are avaliable
- replace --with... with --enable... so they actually work
- Add make, autoconf and gcc to BuildRequires
* Mon May  8 2006 Jay Fenlason  2.6.8-1.FC5
- New upstream release
- Use the upstream xattr patch instead of mine.  This closes
  bz#190208 CVE-2006-2083 rsync buffer overflow issue
