[Bug 715924] [NEW] Simple Backup won't start

 

Public bug reported:

After <code>sudo apt-get install sbackup</code> any attempt to run
sbackup-config-gtk results in a window that says <quote>No default
profile was found. You are probably running Simple Backup for the first
time. A backup profile using default values was created.

Please modify the settings according to your needs and save the
configuration in order to use it.</quote>

There is no sbackup.conf anywhere on my system.  The GUI only presents
me with a "Close" button.  Prior to this problem, I had a valid sbackup
profile and the GUI would not start with that either.  Instead, running
sbackup-config-gtk would result in a backup process starting, but no
GUI.  There was no way to configure or change any options in sbackup
except through the terminal.  I deleted the profile after removing
sbackup and reinstalling it with no effect, then running <code>apt-get
purge sbackup</code> which deleted the profile.  I wish I'd have made a
backup of the the conf file, but it's not much of a loss since this
program won't work for me at all.
