Package: rsnapshot
Version: 1.3.0-2
Severity: wishlist
Hi!
Here's a cron and anacron friendly launcher script for rsnapshot. Just drop it
into
/etc/cron.hourly and everything will be taken care of.
When called it checks how long ago the different backups (monthly, weekly,
daily, hourly)
were successfully performed, and performs the relevant one, if any. It saves
its state in
/var/spool/rsnapshot.
It runs the "hourly" job every four hours and the others at the obvious
intervals.
It's doesn't care about any command line parameters, and it doesn't read any
configuration
files.
I've been running with this for a couple of weeks now, and it works splendidly.
Cheers //Johan

Hello,
the rsnapshot package already have a cron script
(/etc/cron.d/rsnapshot), you only have to uncomment the lines to
activate the jobs.
Afterwards, your script is written in ruby which add a dependency for
the package just for a cron jobs.
Finally, thanks for your investment in Debian, i can close this bug.
