Package: zoneminder
Version: 1.23.2-2
Severity: normal

Tar in the upload function of Zoneminder is reporting not being told files to 
upload.  
"cowardly refusing to create an empty archive" although the files have been 
created.  It could 
be a relative paths issue.  [Yes, I've done the fixes suggested on the ZM for 
Debian.] 

Details: in ZoneMinder 1.23.1, line 713 of scripts/zmfilter.pl defines
$arch_image_path as a relative path.  In version 1.23.2, it appears to
be defined as an absolute path (which can be inferred from examining
the definition of getEventPath in .../ZoneMinder/General.pm).
However, the glob operator used to get the list of files to archive
does not use $arch_image_path directly, but prepends a star
(<*$arch_image_path>), which doesn't work with absolute paths, because
the star implicitly turns the path into a relative one.  (This glob is
used both on line 749 and on line 723.)
