      The rsyncrypto Portfile 41561 2008-11-06 08:32:36Z blb macports.org $

      PortSystem 1.0

      Name: rsyncrypto
      Version: 1.12
      Platform: darwin
      Category: security
      Maintainers: JustinLove.name:macports
      Description: rsync friendly file encryption
      Long Description: A slightly reduced strength bulk encryption. In exchange for the reduced strength, you get the ability to rsync the encrypted files, so that local changes in the plaintext file will result in (relatively) local changes to the cyphertext file. To work out of the box, rsyncrypto requires a version of gzip installed with the +rsyncable variant. MacPorts can't express this dependency, so you'll probably have to (re)install the gzip port manually.
