New question #195460 on Duplicity: https://answers.launchpad.net/duplicity/+question/195460
This is either a new problem in Ubuntu 12.04, or an improvement in error handling in U. 12.04. I launch "Backup" from the Ubuntu "Settings" panel. I perform a backup to an external USB drive. The backup job is mostly successful, however a pop-up box appears at the end of the backup job. It informs me that several files were not backed up. These files are all in directory /boot, and they look important. I can think of two work-arounds: 1. Launch "Backup" with higher permissions. 2. Manually change the permissions of the problematic files in /boot. I would prefer not to try work-around 2. The problematic files include files related to the latest version of Linux. I am inclined to believe that the Ubuntu installer "knew what it was doing" when it set the permissions on these files. Any suggestions? Is this a bug that I should file against Ubuntu 12.04? -- You received this question notification because you are a member of duplicity-team, which is an answer contact for Duplicity. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
