Description Michael Mol 2013-03-12 18:06:10 UTC
In man 1 rsnapshot:

       /etc/rsnapshot.conf.default can be used as a reference.

This is incorrect, as the ebuild installs the file to /usr/share/doc/rsnapshot-1.3.1-r1/rsnapshot.conf.default

The manpage should be corrected to indicate the correct path of the file. (Though I wouldn't worry about .gz vs .bz2 vs .xz ...)

I'll hopefully come back with a patch when I have time.
Comment 1 Lee Trager 2014-04-19 10:17:19 UTC
The ebuild isn't actually putting a sample config file anywhere.
Comment 2 Lee Trager 2014-04-19 10:27:30 UTC
Disregard my last comment I must of accidentally deleted that file.
Comment 3 Sergiy Borodych 2016-08-12 09:24:15 UTC
We have post-install message, like

 * Messages for package app-backup/rsnapshot-1.4.2:

 * The template configuration file has been installed as
 * /usr/share/doc/rsnapshot-1.4.2/rsnapshot.conf.default
 * Copy and edit the the above file as /etc/rsnapshot.conf
>>> Auto-cleaning packages...

Do you think it is not enough?

remove '/etc/' since we don't place it here.
