Bug#1040333: restic fails when using rest backend

[David Roman]

It does contain an entry for the localhost. The issue was not present 
before updating to Debian 12 so I guess the problem comes from some 
configuration changed with Debian 12 that made restic fail with that setup.

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply.

That indeed looks like a problem on your setup. Maybe your /etc/hosts 
does not contain "127.0.0.1  localhost"?

Bug#1040333: restic fails when using rest backend

[David Roman]

I found out that when I use rest:http://localhost:port as restic endpoint it fails but when I use 
rest:http://127.0.0.1:port it works. So maybe it's not strictly restic related.

Bug#1040333: restic fails when using rest backend

[David Roman]

Package: restic
Version: 0.14.0-1+b5
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: dro...@ifae.es

Dear Maintainer,
 
   I have a restic-server. Usually I ran: restic -r "rest:http://:8000" 
snapshots 
   and other commands correctly but it stopped working after upgrading
   to Debian 12.

   * What led up to the situation?
   Upgrading to Debian 12
  
   * What was the outcome of this action?
   Fatal: unable to open config file:  does not exist
   Is there a repository at the following location?

   (note that I checked with other machines running a different version
   of restic that the restic-server was up and the same command was
   working in other machines running restic-0.15.2)

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
   A list of snapshots
