Description Rob Tongue 2013-08-22 15:04:05 UTC

Created attachment 356692 [details]
backintime-right-vs-wrong.tar.gz

/usr/bin/backintime-* scripts are missing some pieces to force them to use python2, and ssh-agent.  /usr/bin/backintime can be used as a reference.  

I will upload old and new files, so that a patch may be created, with incorrect and expected contents.

ALSO: I emerged with use="-gnome kde" so that it pulls in the KDE UI, I am unaware if the gnome UI scripts exhibit the same behavior, but I would imagine they do. 

Command in launch scripts currently look like:

python $APP_PATH/askpass.py "$@"

But should be:

ssh-agent python2 $APP_PATH/askpass.py "$@"

Or else ssh backup is not possible. Verified working on two of my machines, amd64
