I saw that pkexec is dep. of policykit-1, a dep. of backintime so add a pkexec dep. is not needed in SRU. I prepared a Jammy vm and did a fast test of backintime from my ppa. I saw that launch from icon as root crash, I found that is a pkexec bug with wayland (now default), with xorg works

thanks for testing, after point 2 have you also installed the updated package, right? I tested 1.3.2-0.1 on debian unstable before upload on it and was working also as root, I suppose related to one of other fixes (but I not checked in code changed now if there are changes related to it), as

@fantonifabio: as a normal Ubuntu user, unaware of the official Ubuntu dev/test/release lifecycle but eager to have this bothering bug finally fixed, I have tested your fix at the best of my understanding as follows: 1. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:fantonifabio/ubuntu-fixes 2. sudo apt update 3.

backintime-qt 1.2.1-3 fails because of an incompatibility to python 3.10. python 3.10 is part of Ubuntu 22.04. Therefore my assumption: the version of backintime-qt contained in Ubuntu 22.04 was never tested. It's simply not starting at all. So I dont understand the statement, that in order to

Thanks for providing this fix via the BIT PPA. I've had so many problems with my system since the upgrade to Ubuntu 22.04, this was just one more issue I had to spend time attempting to fix. Pretty disappointing that Ubuntu, and thus derivatives, are now shipping with a bunch of broken software

From the SRU team's perspective backporting the version of backintime in Kinetic to Jammy would require a more thorough review as opposed to just updating the package with the specific fix for this bug report. If it'd be possible to cherry pick the specific fix, I'd recommend doing that. -- You

I join fantu and lastique in urging fix 1.3.2-0.1 to be ported to Ubuntu 22.04: - because 22.04 is an LTS, bound to include a serious, hassle-free, powerful and yet easy-to-use backup tool such as backintime-qt. - because backintime-qt is far more feature-rich and flexible than the default
