Yeah, it makes me wonder if duplicity is still maintained or not...
A few years ago there was some discussion of making duplicity compatible
with librsync's new BLAKE2 message digests, but I guess the work has
stalled.
Btw, the affected packages (btar, rdiff-backup, and duplicity) are the
only users of librsync in Guix. So I think there is no reason to
update librsync for now.
