What software would you like us to add to wolfi-os. Ideally include a URL to the project and its source.

librsync - Library for delta compression of streams

• Project URL: https://librsync.github.io/
• Source Repository: https://github.com/librsync/librsync
• Downloads: https://github.com/librsync/librsync/releases

librsync is a library for calculating and applying network deltas, with an interface designed to ease integration into diverse network applications. It encapsulates the core algorithms of the rsync protocol for efficient delta compression.

which versions of the software should we include?

2.3.4

Add some justification for why this specific package and versions are important.

1. Core infrastructure library: Provides essential delta compression algorithms used by backup tools and sync applications
2. Mature and stable: Well-established library (20+ years) with proven reliability
3. Dependency for other tools: Required by duplicity and potentially other backup/sync tools
4. Performance critical: Native C implementation provides optimal performance for delta operations
5. Small footprint: Lightweight library perfect for containerized environments
