Extended attributes not supported on filesystem at source_dir Unable to import module posix1e from pylibacl package. POSIX ACLs not supported on filesystem at source_dir </output> and similar for target_dir ACLs are not included in the backup Expected Results: ACL support by automatic package dependency in e.g. Yast/zypper "... you need to "apt-get install python-pylibacl"... you can also throw in python-pyxattr if you want extended attributes. .." (http://osdir.com/ml/sysutils.backup.rdiff-backup.general/2005-07/msg00027.ht...) Looking for these two modules in openSUSE Build Service gives two hits: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/python/openSUSE_... http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/miniwark:/python/openSUSE_11... Installation of both packages gives expected result, see attached test case. rdiff-backup is an excellent "run unattended" tool (I have installed a backup on every shutdown via /etc/halt.local) that should be fully supported. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
