Package: bup
Version: 0.27-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
Have successfully done a backup via index and then save.
export BUP=/media/me/some-drive/backups
bup index /home/redacted
bup save -n home-dir /home/redacted
Have then done an incremental backup
bup index /home/redacted
bup save -n home-dir /home/redacted
All completes with minor errors about web cache files dissapearing, but okay.
Tried to restore the latest backup by the following
bup restore -C test-dir home-dir/latest/home/redacted
Got the following error
Traceback (most recent call last):

I was expecting the file to be able to be restored (indeed it seems to have
been
backed up).
I am guessing that filenames containing hashes are not liked by bup?
This means I won't be able to back up any folders containing emacs edited files.
#file# style files are used regularly by emacs.
Not sure how to solve this one.
Should you require more details (or if I've missed something obvious to get
around this
issue) please let me know.
Regards,
David
