Hi all,

I want to give Duply a try to do the incremental backups for my DA machine.
However Duply required ncftp, which is installed by DA, but yum is not aware of.

Can anyone explain to me what would be the safest way to proceeed?
( I could remove the ignore *ftop* from yum, but will this result in a broken system, or just two versions of ncftp on my system? )

Best regards,
Armand

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
                        package-cleanup --dupes
                        rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
The program package-cleanup is found in the yum-utils package.
 
Hello,

try this:

Code: 
yum search ncftp --disableexcludes=main
yum install ncftp --disableexcludes=main

and then follow your commands to install duplicity.

That should *not* break anything, just might you have either two versions of ncftp or get newer version replaced with an older one.

p.s. duplicity is going to be a part of directadmin sooner.
