There are two simple typos in archive-conf which make Python bail out. I'll attach a patch. Seems like archive-conf needs even more love (including a man page), maybe I find the time to fix the rest one day. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. touch /etc/foo.dummy 2. archive-conf /etc/foo.dummy Actual Results: File "/usr/sbin/archive-conf", line 92 dispatch_conf.rcs_archive_post_process(archive): ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax
