Please try getting the latest version from http://freshmeat.net/projects/popt and running the test cases with "make check". If they fail, please try to get a C programmer with access to your machine to find the problem. If they pass, then try installing libpopt and linking rsync against that. (Use "make distclean; ./configure --without-included-popt") -- Martin p.s. if somebody is helping you debug problems *for free* then it is kind of annoying to not read and follow their instructions: > If you have gdb, then this would help > > gdb ./rsync > run --help > (probably crashes here) > where > info locals
