Package: obnam Version: 1.5-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch upstream Dear Maintainer,
The manpage sectin for the mount command is incomplete. It says: obnam [options] mount [ROOT] and only provides details for the viewmode and fuse-opts options Using the mount commmand that way simply doesn't work. I have been able to find online docs to make it work, see http://vlists.pepperfish.net/pipermail/obnam-flarn.net/2013-April/000745.html The basic usage is: obnam mount --config=normal.conf --generation NN --to=/mount/point --root=/ (where --root is path within repo generation NN) Alternatively you can mount all generations in separate subdirectories obnam mount --config=normal.conf --viewmode=multiple --to=/mount/point --root=/ (you can also set --root if they all have the same prefix) So, the manpage should at least read obnam [options] mount --to=[MOUNTPOINT] --root=[ROOT] because it doesn't work at all without these options, and --root and --to have different meanings for the mount command and backup/restore commands.
