The librsync library implements network delta-compression of streams and
files. The algorithm is similar to that used in the rsync(1) and xdelta(2)
programs, but specialized for transfer of arbitrary-length octet streams.
Unlike most diff programs, librsync does not require access to both of the
files on the same machine, but rather only a short ``signature'' of the
old file and the complete contents of the new file.

Move net/librsync2 to net/librsync
- Bump PORTREVISION of dependent ports for dependency change
net/librsync was removed from ports tree almost 3 years ago.
from MOVED:
net/librsync|net/librsync2|2017-04-28|Unmaintained, CVE-2014-8242, use
net/librsync2 instead
net/librsync2: fix build on GCC architectures
Needs newer compiler than base GCC:
/usr/local/poudriere/ports/default/net/librsync2/work/librsync-2.2.1/src/checksum.h:62:
error: 'weaksum_t' has no member named 'rs'
Approved by: mentors (implicit approval)
- Update librsync to 2.0.0 and move to net/librsync2.
This is ABI-compatible with 1.0.0, but due to an accident
upstream with releasing 1.0.1 with a reversed shlib version,
they released 2.0.0 with only a restoration of the shlib
version of 2.
