Package: duplicity
Version: 0.4.2-2+sftp+amazons3+compression
Severity: serious
bckends.py contains this line:
commandline = ("echo -e 'cd %s\nls -1' | %s -b - %s" %
echo -e is a bashism. When run on a system where /bin/sh -> dash, this
results in:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/duplicity>duplicity -v9
--scp-command 'scp ' --ssh-command 'ssh ' --encrypt-key 146B71F8 --sign-key
146B71F8 --remove-older-than 60D --include '/etc' --exclude '**' / scp://[EMAIL
PROTECTED]//home/joey/lib/backup/kite/etc
Main action: inc
Reading results of 'echo -e 'cd /home/joey/lib/backup/kite/etc
ls -1' | sftp -b - [EMAIL PROTECTED]'
Invalid command.
And duplicity does full backups over and over (which can be really bad behavior
if you're set up for incrementals).
Fix is simple, just replace the "echo -e" with a "printf".
(It might also be nice to check for read errors from the popen.)
