Package: dirvish Version: 1.2.1-1 Severity: normal To backup remote hosts, I don't use dirvish to rsync the remote files directly. Instead I let the remote host push the files by himself on the backup server.
Then I use dirvish to rotate the backups locally. This works quite well. My bank is /backup/ and I have a the directory /backup/staging/ where I upload the backup of remote. /backup/staging/* are then rotated in various vaults /backup/<vault>/ (none of the vault are named staging obviously). Now it happens that one of the backups contains a summary file and thus the recursive find done by dirvish-expire finds a summary file below /backup/staging/ (which is not supposed to be a vault) and of course fails with a strange message like this one: cannot open config file: ouaza.com/folders/INBOX/summary IMO, dirvish-expire should be more intelligent and find the list of vaults by a simple lookup of <bank>/*/dirvish/. And it should only look for summary files in real vaults. Alyternatively, it shouldn't fail on invalid summary files but only generate a warning and skip it. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers proposed-updates APT policy: (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-5-xen-686 Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages dirvish depends on: ii libtime-modules-perl 2003.1126-2 Various Perl modules for time/date ii libtime-period-perl 1.20-8 Perl library for testing if a time ii perl 5.8.8-7 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii perl-modules 5.8.8-7 Core Perl modules ii rsync 2.6.9-2 fast remote file copy program (lik Versions of packages dirvish recommends: ii ssh 1:4.3p2-9 Secure shell client and server (tr -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
