Package: dump
Version: 0.4b37-1
Severity: wishlist

hi

I run (through cron.daily) a nightly backup of this form
  dump -0 /home -f - | ssh remotehost "dd of=homebackup"

Each day I receive a long email with all details of what dump did;
I would appreciate if there was a wait to quiet dump 

I am not willing to do 
  dump -0 /home -f - 2> /dev/null | ssh remotehost "dd of=homebackup"
because I would then not receive errors (if any) in dumping the fs

The best would be a -quiet option so that
  dump -0 /home -f -  -quiet | ssh remotehost "dd of=homebackup"
would silently do its job and only report errors (if any)

thanks

a.
