Now, you can go install FreeFileSync 10.9 on CentOS 7 from an rpm built on CentOS 7! The upstream release follows some newer versions of libs (clearly compiled on a different platform than CentOS or even Fedora), and I have now compiled those versions based on the work of a genius fellow over at city-fan. To get FreeFileSync on CentOS 7, you need to load up two of my coprs as seen in the following table. COPR name | repo file
---|---
bgstack15/stackrpms | bgstack15-stackrpms- epel-7.repo
bgstack15/FreeFileSync | bgstack15-FreeFileSync- epel-7.repo
The application depends on some newer libs, which are all available in a second copr.
