There is something strange using the system backup packaged with OpenSuse 10.3. I cannot run the backup with the cron job. This is the original command launched by the cron job (it was built by Yast automatically): /usr/lib/YaST2/bin/backup_cron "profile=backup-sistema" I begun having this problem with OpenSuse 10.2 in November. Probably a security update has corrupted the script backup_cron. In fact it does not work either using cron or a terminal. I uninstalled then reinstalled the backup package but unfortunately only the updated version is downloaded and it does not work. Doing a manual backup, it works perfectly. Below I am reproducing the email sent by the cron job; if you want I can send you the script file. Thank you for your help.
