[rdiff-backup-users] No lchown on 10.3 for rdiff-backup 1.0.0

[Blair Zajac]

Hello,

I just tried to run rdiff-backup 1.0.0 and I get an undefined symbol error for 
lchown:

$ rdiff-backup
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/sw/bin/rdiff-backup", line 20, in ?
    import rdiff_backup.Main
  File "/sw/lib/python2.4/site-packages/rdiff_backup/Main.py", line 25, in ?

ImportError: Failure linking new module: : dyld: python2.4 Undefined symbols:
/sw/lib/python2.4/site-packages/rdiff_backup/C.so undefined reference to _lchown 
expected to be defined in a dynamic image

There is a lchown manual page on 10.3, but running nm on /usr/lib/lib*dylib and 
greping all headers in /usr/include shows no lchown symbol.

The next rdiff-backup release may want to special case this.

Does 10.4 have lchown?

Regards,
Blair
