Public bug reported:
I have set:
# Number of days we have to keep an archive (Time To Live)
export BM_ARCHIVE_TTL="2"
export BM_LOGGER_LEVEL="info"
yet have a weekly anachron job which creates my archives. I'm not sure
whether the "2" is actually meant to mean "two days" or "two" backups.
But in any case the processing seems wrong:
Anacron is invoking the weekly script on 2013-12-3 and is removing only
the md5 file 20131126 yet not the corresponding archive files. After
the processing below I still have:
-rw------- 1 root root 71 Dez 3 08:43 schiefer-20131203.md5
-rw-rw---- 1 root root 2391242 Nov 26 10:06

-rw------- 1 root root 2390977 Dez 3 08:43

-rw-rw---- 1 root root 1173007204 Nov 26 10:18
schiefer-var-lib-home.20131126.master.tar.bz2
3 files from last weeks backup. Because only the md5file was removed
yet not the corresponding archives leads to the message: No md5file
found: /var/archives/schiefer-20131126.md5
(There are other disturbing issues but I'll open separate bugs for
them.)
