nssbackup ones

youll' find a report, answering in the text for each step

my translation is: "No configuration file found for default profile"

the purge option ("sélectionner pour suppression complète", I guess, was 
not available. So I first proceeded to step 3.
Then I installed again nssbackup (by the way, it seemed to be in order 
again), and then purged it

installed, but there I find no menu entry for sbackup. Old entries for 
nssbackup are always her, in "Applications>Autres"= "Softwares>Others" I 
guess

running sbackup from a terminal give the same result as previously

leleu@portable-leleu:~$ sbackup

I'm no paranoid, and fully trust you, but adding the ppa just added the 
"main" .....what should I do to add the "source"?
