Package: obnam Version: 1.1-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Obnam exlucdes files with "syslog" in the name, but I did not specify any exclude pattern except "one-file-system". Neither does the manpage describe this or say how to turn it off - I want my logs backed up, and even more important I want stuff like /usr/sbin/rsyslogd in my backup. The used config: [config] encrypt-with = B29E81AB repository = sftp://.../ client-name = ... log = syslog log-level = info root = / one-file-system = 1 weak-random = 1 Log extract: Jul 24 14:54:01 vpnhub1 2012-07-24 14:54:01 INFO Excluding (pattern): /var/log/syslog.0 Jul 24 14:54:01 vpnhub1 2012-07-24 14:54:01 INFO Excluding (pattern): /var/log/syslog Jul 24 14:54:01 vpnhub1 2012-07-24 14:54:01 INFO Excluding (pattern): /var/log/syslog.6.gz Jul 24 14:54:01 vpnhub1 2012-07-24 14:54:01 INFO Excluding (pattern): /var/log/syslog.1 ...
