Public bug reported:

Hi,

nssbackup uses backup from different machine as base for incremental
backup if both machines are storing backups into the same folder. The
problem occurred for me using nssbackup version 0.2.1 (installed on
Kubuntu 10.4 from ppa onto an external usb drive.

After finishing backup of a second machine in the same backup folder on
an external drive I had the following result in my backup folder
afterwards:

<timestamp1>.<hostname1>.ful
<timestamp2>.<hostname2>.inc

instead of something like this:

<timestamp1>.<hostname1>.ful
<timestamp2>.<hostname2>.ful

So in my point of view nssbackup should only use a previous backup as
base for an incremental backup if the old backup has the same hostname
as the machine running the backup.


Cheers, Andreas
