It seems the only way to get backuppc in feisty now is to make a backport :) Ubuntu-backporters, please make a backuppc backport - current feisty version of backuppc is not user-friendly, while version from gutsy has these improvements:
BackupPC 3.0.0 has quite a few new features, including: * New configuration and host CGI editor (in feisty version the only way to configure backuppc is to edit config files manually:( ). * Support for multi-level incrementals. * Added RSS support from Rich Duzenbury. * Server file names are now in utf8 and optional conversion to/from client name charsets can be configured. All CGI pages now use the utf8 charset. * Per-client backups file (that summarizes each backup) can be recovered if corrupted. This is done by storing each backup's metadata to pc/HOST/nnn/backupInfo. * BackupPC_sendEmail has new options for sending test emails and checking if BackupPC is alive (allowing a cron entry to check if BackupPC is alive). * New scripts BackupPC_fixupBackupSummary (for recovering corrupted backups files) and BackupPC_tarPCCopy (for copying the hardlinks in the PC data directory). -- backuppc package in feisty is outdated https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/86836 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
