Data Copying in the Presence of I/O Errors

Edit Package gnu_ddrescue

GNU ddrescue is a data recovery tool. It copies data from one file or
block device (hard disc, cdrom, etc) to another, trying hard to
rescue data in case of read errors.

It is more memory and time efficient than dd_rescue+dd_rhelp on disks
with more than a few hundred bad sectors.

- Update to new upstream release 1.16
* The new options "-K, --skip-size" and "-T, --timeout" have been
  added. The short name of option "--try-again" has been changed to
  "-A". Maximum skip size is now limited to 1% of infile size or 1
  GiB (whichever is smaller). The current position is now set to
  the end of the block when reading backwards, allowing perfect
  resumability also in reverse mode. The "-E, --max-error-rate"
  option now checks the rate of actually failed reads, not the
  growth of error size, and shows the error rate in the error
  message. The -v option increases verbosity if repeated.
