Hello,

just in case anyone is using BackupPC (thanks for that great piece of
software, Craig!) with current CyanogenMod stable (10.1.2, don't know if
other versions are affected):

Bbecause sshd/libc is complaining and print the output

void endpwent()(3) is not implemented on Android

whenever you log in via SSH, resulting in protocol version mismatch
when trying to transfer files with $Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsync', I
patched File::RsyncP like this (tested on Debian 7.1):

--- RsyncP.pm.orig      2010-07-25 22:50:02.000000000 +0200
+++ RsyncP.pm   2013-08-22 23:18:15.000000000 +0200
@@ -397,6 +397,12 @@ sub remoteStart
     $rs->log("Fetching remote protocol") if ( $rs->{logLevel} >= 5 );
     return -1 if ( $rs->getData(4) < 0 );
     my $data = $rs->{readData};
+    if ( $data =~ /^void endpwent\(\)\(3\) is not implemented on
Android/ ) {

+       return -1 if ( $rs->getData(4) < 0 );
+       $data = $rs->{readData};
+    }
     my $version = unpack("V", $rs->{readData});
     $rs->{readData} = substr($rs->{readData}, 4);
     $rs->{remote_protocol} = $version;

It's ugly, but it "works for me". :)

Cheers
Wolfgang
