[Bug 659020] Re: Cannot install upgrade or remove sbackup-gtk after upgrading to maverick

 

I'm having problems with sbackup as well after upgrading from 10.04 to
10.10.  In 10.04 you could launch it from the Administration menu and it
required sudo access.  Now in 10.10 it is launched from the Accessories
menu and is not found in the Administration menu.  When you launch it
from the Accessories menu in 10.10 it does not remember the
configuration you had in 10.04, instead loading a default profile and
asking for you to save your configuration.  However, the backup still
runs using the configuration you had in 10.04.  I tried copying the
configuration file from the version in 10.04 (located in 'etc') to the
new version in 10.10 (located in 'home/userid/.config') but then a
permission denied error comes up.  Also, I can't restore using the new
10.10 version when pointing to the existing backup files created by the
10.04 version, as it does not have permission to the directory I used to
store the backup files.

Basically, I've got the version that requires sudo access running in the
background properly as it did in 10.04, but I can't access it via the
gui.  I'd be happy reconfiguring and using the user version accessible
in the gui, but I'm afraid it will conflict with the sudo version
already running.
