I am currently trying to find a sponsor, is there anything else missing so far? A few notes about the issues mentioned above from a ReaR design point of view: 1) ReaR brings along the empty filesystem of a mini linux distribution (no binaries) which is the reason for the empty files and symlinks pointing nowhere. As part of the ReaR process to create the rescue media this empty filesystem is filled in with components from the current linux system to create a functioning mini linux rescue system. Is there a way to get along with the empty files and dead symlinks? 2) ReaR does not have a -devel package and - by design - always contains the entire distribution. That is why you will also find .deb and gentoo files as part of every ReaR installation so that any user can package his/her (modified) version of ReaR without installing any additional tools. Since ReaR is written entirely in Bash there is no platform or distribution dependency beyond what ReaR is already doing internally. Of course we could leave these under /usr/share/rear and not copy them to %doc.
