The minimal fix is to not test whether the .sync directory exists, as was introduced upsteam in rsnapshot-program.pl v1.377. A patch is available at http://rsnapshot.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/rsnapshot/rsnapshot/rsnapshot-program.pl?r1=1.377&r2=1.378&view=patch I pushed a branch with this fix at lp:~numerigraphe/rsnapshot/fix-sync_first-link_dest .
FYI, a cleanup patch was also applied upstream in rsnapshot-program.pl v1.416, but it doesn't apply cleanly to the code in lucid. This patch is at http://rsnapshot.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/rsnapshot/rsnapshot /rsnapshot-program.pl?r1=1.415&r2=1.416&view=patch Lionel. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/519031 Title: rsnapshot does not support using link_dest and sync_first simultaneously -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
