I'm proud to announce the first release 0.11.0 of the 0.11 series of the Simple Backup suite.
Thanks to all who contributed to this release with coding, sending patches, testing, reporting bugs and translating! Series 0.11.x finally replaces the old-fashioned Simple Backup 0.10.5 with code that was developed in (Not So) Simple Backup in the meantime. It adds some very interesting features and is ready for daily use. Most notable enhancements are: * fixes many, partly long standing, bugs * implementation of a status application which presents information of running backups such as backup size, progress and estimated remaining time * implementation of a GIO/GVFS backend for access of remote targets (currently supported is FTP, SFTP, SSH, NFS). The backend to use can be controlled by a GConf setting (see https://answers.launchpad.net/nssbackup/+faq/1256) * notification window in case of not found backup destination: you can directly retry to use the specified destination, after mounting an external disk (good for creation of backups stored on external disks that might not be plugged in) See the changelog on the download page for more information. Known issues - There are a few known issues in SBackup 0.11.0: * Logarithmic purge is disabled * specified log directories are not modified when using former nssbackup configurations. This might lead to directories named `.../nssbackup`. * in order to use secure remote targets (SFTP, SSH via GIO) you'll have to add the remote machine to your trusted machines first (see https://answers.launchpad.net/nssbackup/+faq/1255) * due to default security settings it is not possible to create backups at remote destinations which are split into several chunks when running as superuser (root) using the GIO backend * when upgrading snapshots in old Simple Backup format (1.4 and older) it is not recommended to use these as base for successive snapshots. Make a full snapshot instead. * No Help available on Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy (due to use of Mallard) * if you want to install nssbackup from source code after you've had already installed it from PPA, you need to *Purge* the package (i.e. remove package and configuration files, not only remove) to avoid confusion of your packaging software about configuration files in system directories (namely /etc/dbus-1/system.d) Have fun. Changelog: * [Fix] LP #618730: Merge sbackup and nssbackup (see enclosed file nssbackup.ChangeLop for further information) * [Fix] LP #604558: 'abort backup' on exernal drives not possible * [Fix] LP #412934: sbackup/nssbackup fails if exclude-path contains an equal-sign * [Fix] LP #277137: crashed with NoSpaceError: No space left on device * [Fix] LP #328902: Spelling and wording errors * [Fix] LP #130856: Show remaining time till backup is finished in UI * [Fix] LP #267759: Simple Backup should display a progress bar * [Fix] LP #137293: empty dialog when restoring with sbackup * [Fix] LP #176838: Incremental backups should not appear incremental when restoring * [Fix] LP #254464: Password for SSH Do Not URI Encode * [Fix] LP #489107: sbackup crahses: stop_if_no_target is not an option in general * [Fix] LP #504990: Mb used instead of MB in the application dialogs * [Fix] LP #507175: libgnomevfs2-extra required for FTP backups * [Fix] LP #310306: Error: no space left * [Fix] LP #383383: restore crashes when the destination path or file is non existent * [Fix] LP #331551: Wrong original English text in sbackup po-file * [Fix] LP #585769: default backup directory doesn't exist in ubuntu * translations updated
