Package: etckeeper
Version: 0.30
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
I get the following error from the cron job
because of the usage of $USER in pre-commit.d/30store-metadata:
/etc/cron.daily/etckeeper:
find: invalid argument `-exec' to `-user'
The attached patch is a workaround.
Thanks,
Johann Felix Soden
