Broken.

Heads up! From post_upgrade(): ---- BIG FAT WARNING: the snapper-git package now uses systemd .timer units instead of cron scripts! If you use timelined snapshots, you need to manually enable and start the timer units with: # systemctl enable snapper-cleanup.timer # systemctl enable snapper-timeline.timer # systemctl start snapper-cleanup.timer # systemctl start snapper-timeline.timer ---- For the rationale behind this step see https://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2014-March/026044.html

@erikw: libtool is part of the base-devel group. From the AUR User Guidelines: "Warning: Packages in the AUR assume the base-devel group is installed, and AUR packages will not list members of this group as dependencies even if the package cannot be built without them..." Otherwhise we also would have to add gcc, make, automake etc etc to every package, too.

Please add package "libtool" to the dependencies as libtoolize(1) is needed to build the package.

Heh, ok. Anyways, I fixed the conf.d vs. sysconfig location in the man pages.

I screwed up - snapperd does not reload its config files automatically, but just seems to check them periodically for changes. I moved my config file with its .pacsave file in /etc/conf.d after the upgrade, but did not issue a 'killall -HUP snapperd' afterwards. Because of that, 'snapper list-configs' showed no configs. By the time I looked at snappers man page, found the default config location and copied the file from /etc/conf.d to /etc/sysconfig, snapperd must have detected the config file change and was working as expected again.

@cbounce: The configure flag for this is --with-conf=/etc/conf.d If that fails I'd say it's an upstream bug, but I cannot reproduce your issue with a just built version. What exactly isn't working?

Hey, I just switched from snapper to snapper-git, and noticed that even though the upgrade process created a .pacsave file for /etc/conf.d/snapper correctly, the git version seems to be hardcoded to look for /etc/sysconfig/snapper for its configuration. after copying my /etc/conf.d/snapper to /etc/sysconfig/snapper, it started working correctly again.

Fixed. Thanks.

In the origin config in /etc/snapper/filters/base.txt the path for the ntp drift file is /var/lib/ntp/drift/ntp.drift but the arch default is /var/lib/ntp/ntp.drift. Would be cool if it would be correct by default.
