Hi In the Netherlands this tool is used to make forensics copies of harddrives/CD/USB et cetera. Attached you will find rdd-2.0.7.ebuild. rdd is a forensic copy program developed at and used by the Netherlands Forensic Institute (NFI). Unlike most copy programs, rdd is robust with respect to read errors, which is an important property in a forensic operating environment. I suggest to place it into app-forensics/rdd Regards Pieter de Rijk
Created attachment 121394 [details] ebuild for rdd 2.0.7
Created attachment 121395 [details] ebuild for rdd 2.0.7 (with corrected man-pages for rdd-verify)
Thanks for the submission. I'll check it and add it to the tree tomorrow. Thanks -Rob
Hi, Is there any progress on adding the ebuild to the tree? -Pieter (In reply to comment #3) > Thanks for the submission. > > I'll check it and add it to the tree tomorrow. > > Thanks > -Rob >
Created attachment 165532 [details] 2.0.7 ebuild w/GTK hooks et. al. Your ebuild doesn't really fall under the guidelines I've typically been held to so I re-wrote most of it. Upstream has some issues with autoconf and install (sandbox violation). Also has some compile warnings that would make me cautious about using in a production forensic environment.
+ 01 Mar 2009; Patrick Lauer <patrick@gentoo.org> +metadata.xml, + +rdd-2.0.7.ebuild: + Initial import. Fixes #181189. Ebuild by RB <aoz.syn@gmail.com> based on + work by Pieter de Rijk.
On my system, it does not manage to link rdd-copy (seems to be a local problem), but it pretends to succeed with installation though there is no rdd-copy executable.
