RHEL by default does not compile in xxhash support for rsync.

We maintain a repo with the (as of now) latest rsync version and xxhash support enabled.  You're welcome to use this.

See point 2 at https://wiki.almalinux.org/Mirrors.html for instructions.

Hey there,
I'm using AlmaLinux 9.1 as my backup server using a script.

I noticed that if I run:

rsync --cc=xxh128.... it reports:

unknown checksum name: xxh128

while inside the rsync manual page this checksum is documented.

Running rsync --version I get:

Checksum list:
     md5 md4 none


Seems that other checksum type where disabled on compilation but
reported on documentation.

The absence of xxh128/xxh64 is a bug or them are disabled by default on
compilation?

Thank you in advance.
