Thomas Lamprecht 9e870b5f39 log rotate: do NOT compress first rotation
The first rotation is normally the one still opened by one or more
processes for writing, so it must NOT be replaced, removed, ..., as
this then makes the remaining logging, until those processes are
noticed that they should reopen the logfile due to rotation, goes
into nirvana, which is far from ideal for a log.

Only rotating (renaming) is OK for this active file, as this does not
invalidates the file and keeps open FDs intact.

So start compressing with the second rotation, which should be clear
to use, as all writers must have been told to reopen the log during
the last rotation, reopen is a fast operation and normally triggered
at least day ago (at least if one did not dropped the state file
manually), so we are fine to archive that one for real.
If we plan to allow faster rotation the whole rotation+reopen should
be locked, so that we can guarantee that all writers switched over,
but this is unlikely to be needed.

Again, this is was logrotate sanely does by default since forever.

``rustup`` Toolchain
====================

We normally want to build with the ``rustc`` Debian package. To do that
you can set the following ``rustup`` configuration:

    # rustup toolchain link system /usr
    # rustup default system


Versioning of proxmox helper crates
===================================

To use current git master code of the proxmox* helper crates, add::

   git = "git://git.proxmox.com/git/proxmox"

or::

   path = "../proxmox/proxmox"

to the proxmox dependency, and update the version to reflect the current,
pre-release version number (e.g., "0.1.1-dev.1" instead of "0.1.0").


Local cargo config
==================

This repository ships with a ``.cargo/config`` that replaces the crates.io
registry with packaged crates located in ``/usr/share/cargo/registry``.

A similar config is also applied building with dh_cargo. Cargo.lock needs to be
deleted when switching between packaged crates and crates.io, since the
checksums are not compatible.

To reference new dependencies (or updated versions) that are not yet packaged,
the dependency needs to point directly to a path or git source (e.g., see
example for proxmox crate above).


Build
=====
on Debian Buster

Setup:
  1. # echo 'deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian/devel/ buster main' >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/proxmox-devel.list
  2. # sudo wget http://download.proxmox.com/debian/proxmox-ve-release-6.x.gpg -O /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/proxmox-ve-release-6.x.gpg
  3. # sudo apt update
  4. # sudo apt install devscripts debcargo clang
  5. # git clone git://git.proxmox.com/git/proxmox-backup.git
  6. # sudo mk-build-deps -ir

Note: 2. may be skipped if you already added the PVE or PBS package repository

You are now able to build using the Makefile or cargo itself.
