Support of asterisk * in BM_TARBALL_BLACKLIST

Open KevinSeroux opened this issue 9 years ago • 2 comments

Hello,

Here's my configuration:

export BM_TARBALL_BLACKLIST="/var/archives/* /dev/* /home/user/no_backup/* /media/* /mnt/* /proc/* /run/* /sys/* /tmp/* /lost+found /boot/lost+found /home/lost+found /var/lost+found"

But after that I've still files that are in the backup in /home/user/no_backup/* or /proc/* but it seems to work for /run/* /sys/*. It's completely random, why?

For information, if I use the asterisk to avoid to manually recreate folders after restoring my system.

most of those folders are system folder you shouldn't have to deal with recreating it when restoring to a new system i guess, as the OS installation phase is dealing with it.

Did you try to run backup-manager using the --debug flag to check the results?
