backupninja (1.2.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium Beginning with version 1.2.0, support for vservers is completely dropped from backupninja. -- Jerome Charaoui Thu, 21 Jan 2021 21:09:43 -0500 backupninja (1.0~rc1-1) unstable; urgency=low duplicity 0.6.17 and later has moved to a new sftp/scp backend which no longer uses sftp/scp client programs, but instead relies on paramiko, a Python ssh+sftp implementation. Therefore, the sshoptions option of the backupninja duplicity handler cannot be used for anything but the one supported by this new backend: -oIdentityfile=some_key_file -- all other ssh options are ignored. -- intrigeri Fri, 27 Apr 2012 23:07:11 +0200 backupninja (0.9.10-1) unstable; urgency=low Being severely broken for ages (see #596935), LDAP support was removed upstream. It will come back once this code has found itself a maintainer. Interested? Get in touch! -- intrigeri Fri, 23 Sep 2011 17:32:11 +0200 backupninja (0.9.8-1) unstable; urgency=low * duplicity 0.6.01 and later defaults to using an archive (cache) directory, which was previously opt-in. Starting with backupninja 0.9.8, the backupninja duplicity handler puts this cache into /var/cache/backupninja/duplicity unless specified by the user with the "options" setting the *.dup job. When backups have been performed with backupninja older than 0.9.8 in conjunction with duplicity 0.6.01 or later, e.g. when using Sid or Squeeze at certain times of the Squeeze release cycle, cache files were probably saved into /root/.cache/duplicity; one may want to delete these files, or rather save bandwidth and just move the cache directory to the new location: mkdir -p /var/cache/backupninja mv /root/.cache/duplicity /var/cache/backupninja/ It is probably desirable to exclude this cache directory from duplicity backup sets to avoid some kind of reentrant backup problem. -- Micah Anderson Sun, 12 Sep 2010 19:58:49 +0200 backupninja (0.9.4-1) unstable; urgency=low * duplicity: Old (pre-0.9.4) example.dup file used to give false information about the way the GnuPG-related options are used. Please read the new /usr/share/doc/backupninja/examples/example.dup file, and update your own configuration files if needed. * duplicity, rdiff: symlinks and globbing support in include/exclude/vsinclude was unclear and did not work in all situations, with weird behavious, due to incompatibilities between various readlink versions in this field. This has been made clear eventually: globbing is fully supported again, whereas no attempt is done to dereference symlinks anymore. Please read the new /usr/share/doc/backupninja/examples/example.dup or /usr/share/doc/backupninja/examples/example.rdiff file, and update your own configuration files if needed. * duplicity: duplicity now uses sftp, which does not support all scp command line options; you thus have to convert the sshoptions setting in your *.dup configuration files, to sftp-compatible syntax; for example, you can replace: sshoptions = -i /root/.ssh/id_dsa_duplicity with: sshoptions = -o IdentityFile=/root/.ssh/id_dsa_duplicity -- Micah Anderson Fri, 6 Oct 2006 13:04:45 -0600 backupninja (0.9.2-1) unstable; urgency=low WARNING FOR DUPLICITY USERS Old (pre-0.9.2) example.dup file used to give false information about the way the GnuPG-related options are used.
