Package: backupninja
Version: 1.0.1-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The sys handler of backuninja saves various informations that should be
helpful in restoring the system.

Among these, dpkg-selections.txt is supposed to help reinstalling the
packages.

However, dpkg --set-selections < dpkg-selections.txt doesn't seem to
still be operational in recent Debian releases.

There are probably many workarounds available, but a canonical
documentation, available in /usr/share/doc/backupninja would be very
much needed, as no backup system is much helpful without restoring
procedures.

Many thanks in advance.

Best regards,
