Package: backupninja
Version: 1.0~rc1-1~bpo60+1
Severity: normal
Hi!
I've recently updated to 1.0~rc1-1 via backports and am unfortunately
still experiencing quite some issues. First of all, a part of the log:

I find three things to be wrong:
1. While rsync seems to finish, it always says the backup may be partially
completed; rotating seems to have stopped as a result. Also,
the daily.2 backup is of the day before I upgraded backupninja.
2. For some reason montly.1 is missing, but it might be return when rotating
works again.
3. I've found that it syncs /proc (amongst which /proc/kcore which always
gives IO errors), although it's in the excludes. When I use ps to
examine the commandline, I get:
/usr/bin/rsync -avF --delete --numeric-ids --rsync-path=rsync
--exclude='/*bin'?--exclude='/dev'?--exclude='/home/*/.cache'?--exclude='/home/*/.local/share/Trash'?--exclude='/home/*/.thumbnails'?--exclude='/home/*/Music'?--exclude='/home/*/Videos'?--exclude='/lib*'?--exclude='/media'?--exclude='/mnt'?--exclude='/proc'?--exclude='/selinux'?--exclude='/sys'?--exclude='/tmp'?--exclude='/usr'?--exclude='/var/cache'?--exclude='/var/run'?--exclude='/var/tmp'
root@cube:/// /media/Backup/cube///daily.1/
Does this newline stuff really work? This output seems weird to me.
I think that (3) needs to be fixed. And maybe due to reasons (1) and (2) I
wouldn't release backupninja 1.0 with support for the long rotation format.
Cheers,
Paul
