Package: backuppc Version: 3.1.0-4 Severity: normal This machine was recently upgraded from Etch. I don't recall all the issues we ran into, but I'll have to review the transcripts I recorded for the event.
However, for what ever reason at the time, the package was removed, then installed again. Upon install, the chmod line in the install script recursively changed permissions in the /var/lib/backuppc subdirectories etc. It actually took more than a few hours to complete. According to todays LOG, cpool is 134GB. I think this operation should be prompted of the user. If need be, I could be aware that this operation might take some time, and I could elect to skip it, if I verify the permissions are sane. Thanks.
