Package: rsnapshot
Version: 1.3.1-4
Severity: normal
I use rsnapshot with a custom setting for ssh_args in order to improve
speed as follows (rsnapshot.conf):
backup [email protected]:/ xen/ ssh_args=-c arcfour
This has worked fine for years. On Aug. 16 I updated
rsnapshot:amd64 1.3.1-3 -> 1.3.1-4
On aug. 17, the daily backup failed with:
rsync: Failed to exec /usr/bin/ssh -c arcfour: No such file or directory
(2)
rsync error: error in IPC code (code 14) at pipe.c(84) [Receiver=3.0.9]
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [Receiver]
rsync error: error in IPC code (code 14) at io.c(605) [Receiver=3.0.9]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
rsnapshot encountered an error! The program was invoked with these options:
/usr/bin/rsnapshot daily
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
On investigation, it looks like the way arguments are passed to the
system() call were changed by 10_space_destdir.diff:

Reverting this patch fixes the issue. If I have time, I will investigate
another method of implementation.
