  1. Binary BorgBackup builds
  2. ========================
  3. The binaries are supposed to work on the specified platform without installing
  4. any dependencies.
  5. Download the correct files
  6. --------------------------
  7. x86 / x86_64 architecture
  8. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  9. borg-linuxnewer64 Linux 64bit (built on Debian 12 "Bookworm" with glibc 2.36)
  10. Note: you can also try them on other older Linuxes - as
  11. long as the glibc is compatible, they will work.
  12. borg-linuxnew64 Linux 64bit (built on Debian 11 "Bullseye" with glibc 2.31)
  13. Note: you can also try them on other older Linuxes - as
  14. long as the glibc is compatible, they will work.
  15. borg-linux64 Linux 64bit (built on Debian 10 "Buster" with glibc 2.28)
  16. Note: you can also try them on other older Linuxes - as
  17. long as the glibc is compatible, they will work.
  18. borg-linuxold64 Linux 64bit (built on Debian 9 "Stretch" with glibc 2.24)
  19. Note: you can also try them on other older Linuxes - as
  20. long as the glibc is compatible, they will work.
  21. borg-macos64 macOS (Darwin) 64bit (built on macOS Sierra 10.12
  22. with latest macFUSE from brew, requires >= 10.12)
  23. borg-freebsd64 FreeBSD 64bit (built on FreeBSD 13.1)
  24. *.tgz similar to above, but built as a directory with files,
  25. not as a single self-extracting binary.
  26. *.asc GnuPG signatures for *
  27. Verifying your download
  28. -----------------------
  29. Please check the GPG signature to make sure you received the binary as I have
  30. built it.
  31. To check the GPG signature, download both the binary and the corresponding
  32. *.asc file and then (on the shell) type, e.g.:
  33. gpg --recv-keys 9F88FB52FAF7B393
  34. gpg --verify borg-linux64.asc borg-linux64
  35. The files are signed by:
  36. Thomas Waldmann <tw@waldmann-edv.de>
  37. GPG key fingerprint: 6D5B EF9A DD20 7580 5747 B70F 9F88 FB52 FAF7 B393
  38. My fingerprint is also in the footer of all my borgbackup mailing list posts.
  39. Installing
  40. ----------
  41. It is suggested that you rename or symlink the binary to just "borg".
  42. On UNIX-like platforms, /usr/local/bin/ or ~/bin/ is a nice place for it,
  43. but you can invoke it from every place by giving a full path to it.
  44. Make sure the file is readable and executable (chmod +rx borg on UNIX-like
  45. platforms).
  46. Reporting issues
  47. ----------------
  48. If you find issues, please open a ticket on our issue tracker:
  49. https://github.com/borgbackup/borg/issues/
  50. There, please give:
  51. - the version number (it is displayed if you invoke borg -V)
  52. - the sha256sum of the binary
  53. - a good description of what the issue is
  54. - a good description of how to reproduce your issue
  55. - a traceback with system info (if you have one)
  56. - your precise platform (CPU, 32/64bit?), OS, distribution, release
  57. - your python and (g)libc version
