This is the same ebuild than for version 1.0.4. Just change the filename. Works for me.

It would be nice to have new dev versions in portage. As ubuntus come with development versions (current beta of feisty has 1.1.5), which are not interoperable with neither ver 1.0.4 nor 1.0.5 we have in portage, my mixed environment containing both kubuntu and gentoo does not work without unnecessary tweaking on either side. Thus it would be nice to have the development versions in portage either keyworded or hardmasked.
Debian's rdiff-backup is 1.1.5 now.
I felt I should point out that 1.0.4 isn't even available in etch repositories anymore meaning backups to/from gentoo to several major distros has been broken. This has been open for almost half a year. Maybe it's time to up the priority?
I added rdiff-backup-1.1.5 to the tree now. While I also tested 1.1.9 I received some errors with this newest version so I decided against adding it at the moment. Or is there a specific need for having 1.1.9? In that case I might consider adding it masked.
Okay, marking as resolved for now. Please reopen if you feel 1.1.9 needs to be added.
