Today I upgraded my coreutils package to 5.94-r1 and rsnapshot stopped working correctly. I get the following message: [18/Apr/2006:12:08:31] /bin/cp -al /var/backups/hourly.0/ /var/backups/hourly.1/ [18/Apr/2006:12:08:31] /usr/bin/rsnapshot hourly: ERROR: /bin/cp failed. Perhaps this is not GNU cp? [18/Apr/2006:12:08:31] /usr/bin/rsnapshot hourly: ERROR: Error! cp_al("/var/backups/hourly.0/", "/var/backups/hourly.1/") Running the command "/bin/cp -al /var/backups/hourly.0/ /var/backups/hourly.1/" manually fails with the message: "/bin/cp: target `/var/backups/hourly.1/' is not a directory: No such file or directory" Removing the trailing slash from the destination fixes the problem.
