Package: cedar-backup2
Version: 2.21.0-3
Severity: important
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
The split action is broken due to a change in the format of the output
of /usr/bin/split. The leading quote is now a forward tick instead of
a backtick:
creating file 'home.tar.bz2_'
instead of
creating file `home.tar.bz2_'
Attached is a small patch to fix this.
Thanks,
Jan Medlock
