Comment 2 Thomas Raschbacher gentoo-dev 2009-03-31 13:48:32 UTC
current version is 7.0.8 .. also it is open source so prolly should add source package instead of -bin ..
maybe i'll give it a try and add it to my overlay ..
Comment 3 Thomas Raschbacher gentoo-dev 2009-03-31 14:11:46 UTC
never mind the comment about the source ... what do those ppl use to build it ... no eclipse project file, no makefile, no compile instructions .. duno if i can be bothered or just use bacula or something instead .. should i do anything here i'll update the bug though .. 
If someone has a makefile,.. for this and would like me to make an ebuild for it email me and i'll consider it, but i'm not willing to write one for a project i don'T know much about .. about the -bin release .. duno maybe but there's no 64 bit one so that'd have to be partially compiled for ext. attributes,..

Just checked their sources files from sourceforge ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/areca/files/areca-stable/areca-7.4.7/areca-7.4.7-src.tar.gz/download ). There is Apache Ant script there, so it can be compiled. If someone can create an ebuild it will be great.

Here is guide how compile it with Eclipse: http://www.areca-backup.org/arcwk/index.php?title=Eclipse it might be outdated though. 
Latest version is 7.4.9 http://sourceforge.net/projects/areca/files/areca-stable/areca-7.4.9/
Here is how it's built in arch: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ar/areca-beta/PKGBUILD
So can someone create an ebuild?

Ebuild file for Areca-7.5

I just wrote an ebuild for the recent areca 7.5. It compiles from source, so no -bin package.

This is my first ebuild written from scratch so don't expect it to be bugfree. There is a linking problem with libacl.so from /usr/lib64 with icedtea-7.2.6.1 (maybe with other JVMs as well) that I wasn't able to resolve myself.
