[rsnapshot-discuss] Mac install

[Keith Ellis]

Hi,

I'm trying to install rsnapshot on a Mac so I can back up my Raspberry Pi ownCloud server. I have cloned the git repository and followed the instructions at https://github.com/rsnapshot/rsnapshot/blob/master/INSTALL.md however the first command
./autogen.sh

throws an error, it cannot find the command 'autoreconf', this does not seem to be in the repository.

Any help on how I can get rsanpshot installed on a Mac would be much appreciated.

Regards,
Keith Ellis

It's part of GNU autoconf:

The least painful way to get it on a Mac is to first install Homebrew:
http://brew.sh/

And then install automake:
$ brew install automake

Or with http://macports.org

Install macports (and XCode command line tools if not already installed), then:

# port install rsnapshot
