Package: automysqlbackup Version: 2.6+debian.4-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
Today, first of month, a new installed server has reported an error trying to backup MariaDB using the package automysqlbackup. The error is: /usr/sbin/automysqlbackup: line 427: [: too many arguments My configuration does not use separate directories. I've googled the error and found what seems to be a bug reported to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/automysqlbackup/+bug/1718887 So it seems that some quotes are needed. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.3 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-5-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages automysqlbackup depends on: ii bsd-mailx [mailx] 8.1.2-0.20160123cvs-4 ii mariadb-client-10.1 [virtual-mysql-client] 10.1.26-0+deb9u1 Versions of packages automysqlbackup recommends: pn mutt <none> automysqlbackup suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/default/automysqlbackup changed: DBHOST=localhost DBNAMES=`mysql --defaults-file=/etc/mysql/debian.cnf --execute="SHOW DATABASES" | awk '{print $1}' | grep -v ^Database$ | grep -v ^mysql$ | grep -v ^performance_schema$ | grep -v ^information_schema$ | tr \\\r\\\n ,\ ` BACKUPDIR="/var/lib/automysqlbackup" MAILCONTENT="quiet" MAXATTSIZE="4000" MAILADDR="[redacted]" MDBNAMES="mysql $DBNAMES" DBEXCLUDE="" CREATE_DATABASE=yes SEPDIR=no DOWEEKLY=6 COMP=bzip2 COMMCOMP=no LATEST=no MAX_ALLOWED_PACKET= SOCKET= ROUTINES=yes -- no debconf information
