Hi,

Would you mind sponsoring the upload, as you sent some bug reports
against the package, which means you should be using it?

Bug#572642: automysqlbackup: Fails to purge rotated weekly backups

[Gregor Hoffleit]

Package: automysqlbackup
Version: 2.5-5
Severity: important
Tags: patch

automysqlbackup fails to purge the rotated weekly backups that are older
than 5 weeks, if you selected SEPDIR (Separate backup for each DB).

It's strange that nobody else noticed this problem yet.

The fix for the problem is a one-liner, see below.


Regards,
Gregor Hoffleit
