Re: Thoughts regarding system-backups

I hit borgbackup,org. It said its part of pkgsrc.
I did a search with 'pkgfind'. I found a GUI for borgbackup in pkgsrc/wip,
but no borgbackup. Where is it? I am building my own GUI tool in pTk
for common root admin tasks. It would be cool to make system-backup
an option...
