Package: backintime-common
Version: 1.5.5-1
Severity: normal

I have backintime-common and backintime-qt installed on a machine.  I
connected to the machine via ssh, and then su'd to root.  As root,
DISPLAY is unset.  I ran "backintime backup", and it just hangs.
Hitting ctrl-C I get the output:

^CERROR: Failed to load plugin systrayiconplugin.py: 
INFO: Lock
INFO: Take a new snapshot. Profile: 1 Main profile
...

and then the backup runs normally.

It's presumably hanging because it can't connect to any Qt services,
but it probably shouldn't be looking for them when not running in a
graphical environment.

Best wishes,

   Julian
