Package: backuppc Version: 4.4.0-2 Severity: normal Hi! I've upgraded from Buster to Bullseye before the release so as to catch possible bugs. And here I am ;-)
My setup has various servers in which I use rsync as transfer method and the user was configured to something different than root. After upgrading from version 3.x (buster) to 4.4 (bullseye) I've discovered that the transfer where not working with error: Backup aborted (rsync error: unexplained error (code 255) at io.c(226) [Receiver=3.1.3.0]) After quite some digging I've found that the configuration for those sites did not keep their proper login but switched back to root. I don't know if this iis fixable, but a notein README.Debian will certainly help a lot. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages backuppc depends on: ii adduser 3.118 ii apache2 [httpd] 2.4.46-4 ii apache2-utils 2.4.46-4 ii backuppc-rsync 3.1.3.0-3 ii bzip2 1.0.8-4 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.74 ii init-system-helpers 1.60 ii iputils-ping 3:20200821-2 ii libarchive-zip-perl 1.68-1 ii libbackuppc-xs-perl 0.62-1+b1 ii libc6 2.31-9 ii libcgi-pm-perl 4.51-1 pn libdigest-md5-perl <none> ii libfile-listing-perl 6.14-1 ii libtime-parsedate-perl 2015.103-3 ii lsb-base 11.1.0 ii perl [libio-compress-perl] 5.32.0-6 ii ssmtp [mail-transport-agent] 2.64-9 ii ucf 3.0043 Versions of packages backuppc recommends: ii libio-dirent-perl 0.05-1+b9 ii openssh-client [ssh-client] 1:8.4p1-3 ii rrdtool 1.7.2-3+b7 ii samba-common-bin 2:4.13.3+dfsg-1 ii smbclient 2:4.13.3+dfsg-1 Versions of packages backuppc suggests: pn certbot | acme-tiny | acmetool | dehydrated | lacme | lecm | lego <none> pn libscgi-perl <none> pn par2 <none> ii rsync 3.2.3-3 ii sugar-browse-activity [www-browser] 205-2 -- Configuration Files: /etc/backuppc/apache.conf changed [not included] /etc/backuppc/hosts [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/etc/backuppc/hosts' /etc/backuppc/localhost.pl [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/etc/backuppc/localhost.pl' -- debconf information excluded
