Package: obnam
Version: 1.6.1-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: upstream patch

I've spent a few days hacking on Obnam to add support for the Linux ext[234] 
nodump flag. This flag, when set with the `chattr +d` command, lets you mark a 
file or folder as not to be backed up, and is a good way for regular users to 
exclude their own files from backup without needing access to Obnam's 
configuration file.

Instead of just emailing a patch, I have pushed these changes to a Github 
repository. There are two branches: `linux-nodump-support` and `linux-nodump-
support-forstable`. The former is based on the current upstream `master`, and 
the latter is based on the current stable release (1.6.1). They differ only in 
which test framework is used: Yarn for the former, and cmdtest for the latter.

They are at:

[master] https://github.com/argv-minus-one/obnam/tree/linux-nodump-support
[stable] 
https://github.com/argv-minus-one/obnam/tree/linux-nodump-support-forstable

To anyone that wants to build an Obnam package with this feature added, you 
can download a zip file containing a source tree, ready for a standard dpkg-
buildpackage build, from:
