Hi there,

I recently noticed that my remote archives were not purged anymore (I am
using FTP but the problem would be the same for SSH). This seems to have
started when I upgraded from 0.7.12-4 to 0.7.14-1.

After investigating, I found the problem lies in the fact that
/usr/sbin/backup-manager exports
BM_BMP_PATH=/usr/bin/backup-manager-purge, whereas backup-manager-upload
tries to run $ENV{BM_BMP_PATH}/backup-manager-purge, thus trying to run
/usr/bin/backup-manager-purge/backup-manager-purge, which does not
exist.

My fix was to simply delete the line "export BM_BMP_PATH=$bmp" (line 37)
in /usr/sbin/backup-manager.

For what it's worth, this line was introduced in a commit related to
upstream issue #91 and I reported it there too:
https://github.com/sukria/Backup-Manager/issues/91#issuecomment-381925277

It seems that the upstream issue report is stale, could you please create a pull request to fix the issue upstream?

Happy hacking,
