** Description changed:

+ [Impact/Test Case]
+ 
  In ubuntu 14.04 LTS, rsnapshot 1.3.1-4 is broken when 'ssh_args' are set
  in the rsnapshot configuration file. For example, I set ssh_args to '-p
  22022', which causes my rsnapshot backup to fail with he following
  error:
  
-   rsync: Failed to exec /usr/bin/ssh -p 22022: No such file or directory (2)
-   rsync error: error in IPC code (code 14) at pipe.c(85) [Receiver=3.1.0]
+   rsync: Failed to exec /usr/bin/ssh -p 22022: No such file or directory (2)
+   rsync error: error in IPC code (code 14) at pipe.c(85) [Receiver=3.1.0]
  
  This worked in saucy's 1.3.1-3 rsnapshot; the newer version has changed
  the way rsync is invoked from rsnapshot, passing an array to perl's
  system() function (which is not interpreted by a shell before being
  exec()ed) rather than a constructed single string, which is interpreted
  by a shell, and thus requires the arguments passed to rsync's -rsh
  argument to be quoted so as to be gathered into a single argument by the
  shell.

  (This was also reported in debian bug https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
  bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=717451)
