Description of problem: TIMELINE_LIMIT_WEEKLY is ignored although the config file has it. Googling for the problem took me to http://h20564.www2.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=mmr_kc-0127682 , which states that this hasn't been pulled in from upstream. Can this be back-ported to RHEL 7.2 ? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): snapper-0.1.7-10.el7.x86_64 How reproducible: Easily Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set TIMELINE_LIMIT_WEEKLY in the config Actual results: No weekly snapshots taken Expected results: Last n weekly snapshots should be preserved where TIMELINE_LIMIT_WEEKLY=n Additional info:
We can consider this for 7.3 through a version upgrade. For 7.2 we would need two things: 1) we'd have to determine whether or not it's a low-risk and straightforward backport; 2) we'd need some justification explaining why this is absolutely necessary because, on the face of it, this looks like a new feature which we would not normally consider as a 'fix' to an already-shipped release.
Yes, 7.3 would be great too.
We aim to rebase snapper package in RHEL7.3 release. Probably to current upstream version. See bug 1250371.
