Description Paul Coccoli 2009-12-11 15:30:27 UTC

Description of problem:
The check for an already running process always succeeds, because it detects itself.  So the script always exits with value 1, and never does anything useful, as far as I can tell.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.4-2.fc10

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. backup-light
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
Error: Backup-light is already running, running it again would be pointless

Expected results:
Preforms the backup with all default settings.

Additional info:

Comment 1 Bug Zapper 2009-12-18 09:47:10 UTC

Fedora 10 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-12-17. Fedora 10 is 
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further 
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

Comment 2 Paul Coccoli 2009-12-30 04:27:42 UTC

Still broken on Fedora 12.  This script does absolutely nothing.
