Package: rsnapshot Version: 1.3.1-1 Severity: normal Tags: squeeze With rsnapshot from lenny it was able to copy backups to a mounted USB hard disk and unmount the USB disk after rsnapshot had finished. For the unmounting I used the cmd_postexec configuration parameter.
With rsnapshot from squeeze this is not possible anymore. rsnapshot complains with ,,Device or resource busy'' (meaning: the USB disk cannot be unmounted because rsnapshot has its current working directory within the snapshot root somewhere). With this issue report I would like to provide a patch (against rsnapshot in squeeze) that might solve the problem. (,,might'' means here: the problem occurrs at a customer's site where I cannot test the patch ATM, but it is very likely that the patch fixes the reported issue). The patch will be send with a follow-up mail. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.4 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages rsnapshot depends on: ii liblchown-perl 1.01-1 Perl interface to the lchown() sys ii logrotate 3.7.8-6 Log rotation utility ii perl 5.10.1-17squeeze3 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii rsync 3.0.7-2 fast remote file copy program (lik Versions of packages rsnapshot recommends: ii openssh-client 1:5.5p1-6+squeeze1 secure shell (SSH) client, for sec rsnapshot suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
