[rdiff-backup-users] Trying to build 1.1.16 on Debian...

[Bert Hiddink]

Hello,

When I try to build the latest version of rdiff-backup on Debian, I get 
the output as showed below.

Is this because of the Python version (2.4)? Or what else could be wrong?

At beforehand, I compiled librsync-0.9.7 in /usr/local/rdiff without any 
 errors.

Thanks in advance!

Regards,

Bert
