gmvault-gmv-1.9.2-beta-1-containerized

With Python2 being EOL and completely removed from modern distros like RHEL 9, it is now difficult to use no longer updated GMvault. That is why I quickly created this containerized version of it, specifically the latest gmvault-gmv-1.9.2-beta-1 (md5sum f93dcf73f34a16307fea55b5dc305696). It is tested and working on Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 9.2 (Plow) and Podman version 4.4.1.

Procedure

  1. Build a GMvault container image; ./BUILD_CONTAINER.zsh
  2. Run any gmvault command inside the container from 1., preferrably mount the host folder so you can also use the backups outside of it; ./BACKUP_GMAIL.zsh
  3. The backups will appear in the mapped host folder, e.g. user_gmail_com
