It keeps the ZPAQ idea of deduplicated multiversion archives but adds operational checks, hardware-aware behavior, and packaging for modern systems. ### Projektgeschichte The public GitHub repository was created in January 2021. The README describes zpaqfranz as an advanced multiversioned archiver, a ZPAQ 7.15 fork, and a tool made by a ZPAQ user and developer after Matt Mahoney's original upstream development ended. The project frames itself around data-storage management rather than only compression. Its README emphasizes deduplicated snapshots, verification modes up to a paranoid level, modern hardware optimizations, Windows VSS-oriented scenarios, sector-level Windows copies, and large real-world archives with thousands of versions. ### Adoptionsgeschichte zpaqfranz inherited a small but motivated ZPAQ audience and then targeted operators who wanted a more actively maintained backup tool. GitHub metadata showed hundreds of stars by mid-2026, and the README lists distribution through Homebrew, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, openSUSE, Debian/Ubuntu packages, Arch AUR, generic Linux downloads, Windows binaries, and SourceForge mirrors. The related `catpaq` GUI, also linked from the README as the official GUI, shows the project expanding from a specialist CLI into a more approachable backup front end without dropping the original command-line package. ### Wie es verwendet wird Typical zpaqfranz use is repeated backup of changing data into a single `.zpaq` archive, then restore by version or date. The README stresses workloads such as fileservers, virtual machine disks, SQL dumps, encrypted archives, cloud copies via rsync or ZFS replica, and verification-heavy disaster recovery. For package users, the difference from upstream `zpaq` is maintenance and operational tooling: more checks, more commands, more platform binaries, more aggressive real-world backup examples, and active releases. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren zpaqfranz is interesting because it is a classic fork story: an excellent but quiet format and CLI gained a second life when a power user needed production backup features. It also gives package collections both sides of the lineage: original ZPAQ for the reference tool and zpaqfranz for the actively evolving operational fork. ### Zeitleiste - 2009-2016: Original ZPAQ development period described by zpaqfranz's README. - 2021-01-20: The public `fcorbelli/zpaqfranz` GitHub repository is created. - 2021: Early README examples show enterprise-style archives with thousands of historical versions. - 2026-06-29: zpaqfranz 64.8 is published on GitHub. ### Related projects - ZPAQ 7.15 is the upstream base named by the zpaqfranz README. - catpaq is the official GUI linked by the zpaqfranz project. - 7-Zip, RAR, rsync, ZFS replication, and Time Machine are practical comparison points used in the README's backup discussion. ### Quellen - - - - input.json source_facts.package-manager ## Sicherheitshinweise broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. - **Geiger-Risiko:** blue / mittel - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal ## Andere Paketmanager-Einträge - Debian apt - zpaqfranz - 62.2-2: normalized package name match | Debian stable package indexes: zpaqfranz from https://deb.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz | Swiss army knife for backup and disaster recovery | https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz/ - Nix - zpaqfranz: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/zp/zpaqfranz/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - dnf - zpaqfranz - 64.8-2.fc45: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: zpaqfranz from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/07190dc5ae9f35ae73866675fed6d95fe6e8d9fe22c9d7cdf85862cb2ed24a4c-primary.xml.zst | Advanced multiversioned archiver with hardware acceleration | https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz - zypper - zpaqfranz - 62.2-1.5: normalized package name match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: zpaqfranz from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/50b07339cb64c8ed4091bdbabddadc1ff5737b090e478818a195b40d8a3292861a879139b4a3987c31109699fde9fbf4a716367ddf4eef77da75f96e3193d6ed-primary.xml.zst | A journaling, incremental, deduplicating archiver | https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
