** Description changed:
Cleanup mechanism seems to be broken, at least for my setup and in
version provided with precise.
Setup:
Precise with 2 accounts set to backup daily with "at least a month" to local
volume.
Both account had backups for 3 last months.
Each full set take ~1GB and incremental are ~25MB.
Temp folder resides on separate volume with at least 2x more space then
required for single set.
Target volume had 90% / ~50GB free.
Problem:
- After last full backup, both account left with only latest full set and
volumes of set before latest, but WITHOUT signatures, making data useless!
+ After last full backup, both account left with only latest full set and
volumes of 1 or 2 sets before latest, but WITHOUT full-signatures, making data
useless!
Cache (~/.cache/deja-dup) contained only signatures of latest set.
Expected:
Even if "low space" is triggered on 90%, which seems un logical, at least 2
recent sets should be left.
