Public bug reported:
In /etc/cron.weekly/mythtv-database there is:
/usr/share/mythtv/mythconverg_backup.pl
Which ends up producing an error:
ERROR: DBBackupDirectory not specified, stopped at
/usr/share/mythtv/mythconverg_backup.pl line 856.
run-parts: /etc/cron.weekly/mythtv-database exited with return code 255
if a database backup directory is not specified anywhere. But in my
case, I don't specify one because I have an independent database dump
and backup process attached to my nightly backups so having
/etc/cron.weekly/mythtv-database do it is redundant. Yet there is no
way for me, as a user/admin/operator to opt to disable this backup and
instead I just get these error messages in my e-mail every week.
There really ought to be a way for me to prefer to not have the MythTV
package itself do a backup if I know it's being done elsewhere.
