Yes, but that's the C library function, not the perl module it is looking
for.
int lchown(const char *path, uid_t owner, gid_t group);
The worst thing is that the program does a check of internal consistency
and needed extensions, proclaims that everything is perfect, I go ahead
attempting a backup, it claims sucess, and nothing was saved :-/
Just imagine this was a cron job. The sysadming has a brief look at the
logs, sees "sucess", and thinks the daily/hourly backup is alright.
But there is nothing saved! Not a hint there is something wrong!
Notice that at the default level of verbosity, there is no mention of
lchown being missed; the logged output is the single line "completed
successfully".
The above output with the error is a fully verbose output. This is the
default output:
Jan 28 03:07:08 nimrodel rsnapshot[14933]: /usr/bin/rsnapshot daily: completed
