[request] confstore

Confstore is a configuration backup utility. Confstore scans your system for all recognised configuration files and then stores them in a simple archive. Confstore can also read these archives, restore configuration from them, upload them to a FTP server, mail them to an email account, encrypt them and maintain a master archive of all of them.

Re: [request] confstore

Hi and thanks for the PKGBUILD.

Doesn't this line overwrite the confstore.pl file, resulting in a zero sized file?

cat $startdir/src/confstore/confstore.pl|sed 's/$CS_CONFIG_PATH = '"'"'./cs.conf'"'"';/$CS_CONFIG_PATH = '"'"'/usr/share/confstore/cs.conf'"'"';/g'>$startdir/src/confstore/confstore.pl 

For in-place sed changes to the confstore.pl might this be better?

sed -i  's/$CS_CONFIG_PATH = '"'"'./cs.conf'"'"';/$CS_CONFIG_PATH = '"'"'/usr/share/confstore/cs.conf'"'"';/g' $startdir/src/$pkgname/confstore.pl

cheers

Re: [request] confstore

Hi all. Due to a couple of posts in this thread getting lost  (see: [URL=http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=10153]Loss of posts and registrations[/URL]), I'll summarise and state that Pajaro's PKGBUILD works fine, as long as you don't use an older version of sed (I was using 4.1.2-x when I had the problem), version 4.1.4-1 seems fine.

cheers
