Do you perhaps assume
RecoveryImage ... \
-b nfs://bender.suse.cz/storage/build113_nfs/rear-SUSE/hubert/backup.tar.gz
would create a backup.tar.gz file in the directory
nfs://bender.suse.cz/storage/build113_nfs/rear-SUSE/hubert/
This is not true.
Only "RecoveryImage ... -b make-rear-backup ..." creates a backup.
"RecoveryImage ... -b BACKUP_URI ..." does not create a backup.
It is only meant to specify an existing backup (without the need
of a local /etc/rear/local.conf file - i.e. so that any backup.tar.gz
file can be used regardless if it was made by ReaR or otherwise).
This is not explicitly mentioned in "/usr/sbin/RecoveryImage -h".
I should enhance the help text accordingly to make it more clear.
