Before I left on vacation, I was using one of CBC‘s cast-off Power Macintoshes (grey G4 tower with 256 MB of RAM) as a build box for creating a MacPorts port of the AMANDA backup system. I tarred up the Portfile and associated patches and have them available – if anyone using a Mac wants to help me test them while I’m away from my regular computer, please drop me a line via the comments and I’ll send it to you!

I have a MacBook. Send me the access and I’ll do some tests if you want while you’re away.
Thanks for testing, Davison – I’ve submitted my current work to MacPorts in Trac ticket #12756. I am certain that it still needs a lot of work, but hopefully this will give it wider exposure.
