New release with helpful bug fixes. The new ebuild file is trivial, simply renaming the old 1.2.1 ebuild file works, however I have incorporated the patch in bug #99065 for good measure. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
Created attachment 66605 [details] proposed ebuild for new version
please change the ebuild as follows: instead of RDEPEND="[...] >=net-misc/openssh-3.7.1_p2-r1 [...]" You should use RDEPEND="[...] virtual/ssh [...]" rsnapshot does indeed work also with ssh from ssh.com. If one uses net-misc/ssh instead of net-misc/openssh rsnapshot should be able to be installed.
Created attachment 66747 [details] ebuild incorporating werner maier's patch Seems to emerge okay, however I only have the original openssh dependency installed.
should work ok, as I had manually changed the openssh-dependency to virtual/ssh in rsnapshot-1.2.1.ebuild and it did build and runs fantastic w/ net-misc/ssh. As net-misc/openssh and net-misc/ssh both do PROVIDE "virtual/ssh", this should be ok for all. thank You for incorporating my patch. regards. Werner
ebuild release works for me, but rsnapshot 1.2.2 seems to have a bug. i cannot rsnapshot a config line like backup root@hostname:/ hostname/ the corresponding rsync-line misses the trailing "/", so only root@hostname: will be backed up, not root@hostname:/ reverting to 1.2.1 (with virtual/ssh) solved the problem.
Bugfix rsnapshot 1.2.3 was released on 8/29, however, the author has found further problems and is now recommending that people stick with version 1.2.1 until he fixes them. As a result, I am marking this as Resolved/Later. I will reopen when the problems are fixed upstream. The problems stem from not using --relative in the conf file. In the mean time, if you don't want to revert, you can change your backup line to: backup root@hostname:/. hostname/ with a '.' protecting the '/' trailing the source. You should check out the rsnapshot mailing list at https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rsnapshot-discuss and add your voice to the people who don't want --relative to be a default flag.
