Hi,

okay, this is confusing me, so I'll try to summarize.

#717451 / #721043 are specifically about quoting problems with ssh_args
containing spaces. A patch had been added to git to fix this for 1.3.1-5
(hence the 'pending' tag on this bug, which I will remove with this
update)

http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/rsnapshot.git/commit/?id=f22cb49a8d76c0856f9a6f66ab17fe436b298f2a

unfortunately 1.3.1-5 was never uploaded and the patch was disabled in
1.3.1-5.1 because it was never applied upstream

http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/rsnapshot.git/commit/?id=581e311f4b8095b5d40c829bedba9d60b822b2ae

Fundamentally the same patch (but from a different author I believe)
has just been included into the "new" upstream repository

https://github.com/rsnapshot/rsnapshot/pull/15
https://github.com/rsnapshot/rsnapshot/commit/f0b3b27d174257bf2a8ad29b8c36499bb7b2fb79

So the fix would be there ... unfortunately unstable has already
advanced to 1.3.1-6 (while jessie is on 1.3.1-4), and even a targeted
fix for 1.3.1-4 would not be allowed right now as far as I understand
the freeze policy. Unless someone has the balls to raise the severity to
RC, which I'm not sure would be warranted. Or talks to the Release Team.
I think it should make it for the first Jessie pointrelease though.

#743310 was originally about broken quoting for other options. Christoph
Egger updated it with the ssh_args issue and I attached the patch to it,
but it will not the issue originally reported in #743310. Hence removing
the tags.

Best Regards,
Bernhard
