Public bug reported:

Hello,

I have the version 0.2-0~beta1 and it works well on full big partitions, but not on a small /home one (~200MB).
When I click on "Backup Now", the CPU is busy with the process "python" but never "gzip" nor "tar" appear in the top list. I can see the file /var/log/nssbackup.log growing up and up, and when it reaches 50kB, I edit it and kill the python process. The file is full of warnings like :
2008-06-13 18:22:26,164 - WARNING - BackupManager.py:isexcludedbyconf(229) - '/home/choupettem/.wine/dosdevices/f:/choupettem/.wine/dosdevices/f:/choupettem/.wine/dosdevices/f:/choupettem/.wine/dosdevices/f:/choupettem/.wine/dosdevices/f:/choupettem/.wine/dosdevices/f:/choupettem/.wine/dosdevices/f:/choupettem/.wine/dosdevices/f:/choupettem/.wine/dosdevices/f:/choupettem/.wine/dosdevices/f:/choupettem/.wine/dosdevices/f:/choupettem/.local/share/Trash/files/.mozilla/.mozilla/firefox/jp6n2dsm.default/lock' n'existe pas. Il doit être exclu
NSSBackup doesn't look to like infinite loops in directory structures using symbolic links, so I excluded "/home/choupettem/.wine" and added "backuplinks = 0" in "/etc/nssbackup.d/nssbackup-BackupHome.conf" (attached).

Not better !

If I missed a newer version including this bug fix, may I know where it
is ?

Regards.
