Bug#519402: Tracking down #519402

2009-04-06 Thread Christian Perrier 
Hello,

In #519402, it was reported that backups done with backuppc with the
SMB backup method were failing because of a possible bug in smbclient.

Guillaume Royer mentioned that upgrading samba-common to the version
from unstable (as of March 12th, it was 3.3.1-1) fixed the problem.

I have a few questions:

- Guillaume, I assume you not only upgraded samba-common but also
smbclient, right ?

- Are any of you able to try using the samba packages from
lenny-proposed-updates:

deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ lenny-proposed-updates contrib non-free main

There is a pending change to samba packages that fixes the following:

  * Correct usage of 'du' command in smbclient. Closes: #514703

That's maybe unrelated but I'd like to check this.

That bug will be tricky to investigate and I don't want to just mark
it fixed in unstable and downgrade it to important without firther
discussion. I'm not sure it is deserving the critical priority,
though, as I think it doesn't lead to data loss, just backup failures
*with notice*, which is different.

Thinking deeper, I am sure it doesn't deserve to be critical.

I agree it deserves to be fixed for lenny, though.

And, as it is fixed in 3.3.1-1, why not mark it as such ?
