I'm running it on Ubuntu 8.04 (hardy).  It's making the snapshot, mounting it 
on a temp directory in /tmp, backing it up, and unmounting it.  It's not 
deleting the old mount point though.  This isn't a bug.  There's simply no code 
written yet to delete it.  The main bug I'm hit with is that level 1 backups 
aren't working.  It's always backing up everything.

look in your sendbackup.debug log for the lvm-snapshot command-line arguments.  
There should be a PRE-DLE-BACKUP and a POST-DLE-BACKUP.  The error handling is 
poor if you run PRE-DLE-BACKUP twice in a row without running POST-DLE-BACKUP.  
Try running pre and post and as root, then try running it as your backup user.
