    I finally got around to trying to install rdiff-backup and found a
    couple of dependencies that I cannot resolve. I can't seem to locate
    librsync.so.1 even though I have rsync installed and I have the
    librsync-devel package available. (When I search for librsync.so.1,
    nothing is found.) I also seem to need an older version of Python which
    I am reluctant to install plus I have no idea where to find an older
    version. Any assistance will be appreciated.
