Cannot start

[Vadi]

Hi all,

I got pybackpack 0.5.2. The setup seemingly went fine, except that it didn't place the meny in accessories like the file says it would (I'm on ubuntu 7.10).

I tried running it from the terminal, but I receive an error:

vadi@vadi-laptop:~/Downloads/pybackpack-0.5.2$ pybackpack
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/pybackpack", line 2, in <module>
    from pybackpack import backuptool

    import rdiff_interface

    import rdiff_backup.Main
ImportError: No module named rdiff_backup.Main

Installing rdiff-backup should solve your problem. If you don't want to do it manually, pybackpack 0.5.1 is in the Ubuntu "universe" repository so you could install that instead and have the benefit of package management. It isn't much different to 0.5.2, to be honest.

(I'm leaving this ticket open to remind me to improve the installation documentation to list dependencies)

Fixed in svn [171]
