Package: backup-manager
Version: 0.7.9-3
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream patch
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Backup-manager calculates the date string of the archive name (the TODAY env
var) upon startup, then performs the backup, then runs backup-manager-upload
with a date argument of 'today' to upload the archive(s).
The 'today' argument results in recalculation of the date string on the fly
by bmu, at the time of invocation, ie just before the upload begins. Thus,
we have two calculations of the date part of the archive name separated by a
potentially significant time delay.
Therefore, if a backup starts at date X and finishes at date X + 1, it will
not get uploaded. I was actually hit by that before inspecting the code.
A patch is attached to address this issue. The patch replaces the 'today'
argument with the $TODAY variable, the one that its value is set during the
startup of backup-manager.
I have tested the patch both by building the package and patching my system's
live configuration and it works (backups are uploaded).
The patch has also the nice side effect of allowing the upload of archives of
any date, by writing 'export TODAY=...' in a configuration file, FOO, and then
issuing 'backup-manager --upload -c FOO', since backup-manager sets the TODAY
variable early, before reading the configuration file.

Changes:
backup-manager (0.7.10.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
[ Sven Joachim ]
* New upstream release (Closes: #655985).
- Adds a new "postgresql" backup method (Closes: #637743).
* Remove the fragile translation-updates.diff patch. Instead, backup
the upstream po files before the build and restore them in the clean
target (Closes: #602633).
* Depend on perl (via ${perl:Depends}), rather than than suggesting it,
since perl is required by backup-manager-purge (LP: #941919).
* Drop the debian-perl-location.diff patch, setting PERL5DIR in
debian/rules instead.
* Refresh the remaining Debian patches.
* Fill out the same "Language:" header in debian/po/*.po.
* Drop findutils dependency, even the version in Etch is new enough.
* Upgrade Standards-Version to 3.9.3, no changes needed.
* Update lintian override for Lintian 2.5.
* Update debian/watch to find the 0.7.10.1 release tarball.
* Add build-indep and (empty) build-arch targets to debian/rules.
* Update Vcs-* fields in debian/control, switching to collab-maint.
* Fix a few typos in the debconf templates, thanks to Daniele Forsi
for the report.
* Update README.Debian, the Amazon S3 upload method not longer needs
libfile-slurp-perl (see #491199).
* Demote the priority of the repo_user/repo_group debconf templates to
medium.
* Update debian/copyright.
.
[ Georgios M. Zarkadas ]
* Add Greek debconf translation.
* Allow absolute paths in BM_TARBALL_BLACKLIST even when backing up
the root (/) directory (Closes: #608237).
* Fix missed archive uploads when backups are crossing the day
limit (Closes: # 638803).
* Provide a configuration option to record all uploaded archives in
a single text database file (Closes: #638920).
* Fix upstream makefile to make the build/clean process of gettext (po)
files idempotent and bring sanity back to the package's build process.
* Fix a security issue in pgsql backup method regarding the .pgpass
file handling.
* Add support for local unix sockets connections to the pgsql backup method.
* Add existence check for pg_dumpall to the pgsql backup method.
* Use the same naming convention for database methods generated archives.
* Add myself to Uploaders.
* Add cron script to remove old entries from uploaded archives database.
* Update control file to reflect upstream fix of Amazon S3 uploading
method's dependencies (Closes: #491199).
* Fix missed warnings when BM_LOGGER* variables are undefined or wrongly
configured (Closes: #567553).
* Change configurator to dynamically update BM_TARBALL_BLACKLIST when
user selections change during configuration (Closes: #610413).
* Add backtracking support to the configurator.
.
[ Sven Joachim, Georgios M. Zarkadas ]
* Switch source format to 3.0 (quilt).
- Drop debian/README.source.
* Change debian/rules to use the generic 'dh$@' rule plus overrides.
.
[ Joe Dalton ]
* Add Danish debconf translation (Closes: #659162).
