I am upgrading debian servers currently "Buster" to "BullsEye". I notice that backuppc is upgrading from 3.3.2-2+deb10u1 (buster) to version 4.4.0-3 (bullseye). Are there any prerequisites before upgrading or is there nothing to do? Will the configurations and backups still be correct?
YMMV. My personal approach will (as always) be to allow some of the inevitable problems to appear - and be ironed out - before I upgrade anything to Debian 11. Assuming that you are using the Debian packages, I would expect that the Debian maintainer will document any changes necessary in the information accompanying the package upgrades. There are some significant changes. I would note in particular that without a change to the default configuration, version 4.x of BackupPC does not traverse filesystems. See the archives of this mailing list for more information, e.g. search for '--one-file-system'. -- 73, Ged. _______________________________________________ BackupPC-users mailing list BackupPC-users@lists.sourceforge.net List: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/backuppc-users Wiki: https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc/wiki Project: https://backuppc.github.io/backuppc/
