Package: barman
Version: 1.4.1-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I've just upgraded two 9.1 clusters to 9.4.2. The new cluster
continued with the same archive_command as before, but until I did the
*second* new basebackup, barman would just discard all archived WAL
segments (including the .backup labels). My retention setting is 1, so
it might be that it simply started working once the last old backup
was expired.

I'm not sure if it's related to the fact that 9.4.2 actually *restarts*
the timeline at 1 (see 4c5e060049a3714dd27b7f4732fe922090edea69 in PG
master), or if it's a general problem with pg_upgrade. (The WAL
position is preserved, but the timeline id 2 is now again 1.)

A related bug is that I still had files in wals/00002..., while all my
base backups (well actually the single backup) only needed files in
wals/00001.... I've now manually removed these and rebuilt the wal db.
