    re my last post. Also tried the deb package from your site. Same unmet dependencies.

    Also tried source package but got these errors:

    richard@galaxy:~/downloads/backintime-0.9.26/kde4$ ./configure
    All OK. Now run:
    make
    sudo make install
    richard@galaxy:~/downloads/backintime-0.9.26/kde4$ make
    make: Nothing to be done for `all’.
    richard@galaxy:~/downloads/backintime-0.9.26/kde4$ sudo make install
    #install python
    install -d /usr/share/backintime/kde4
    install –mode=644 *.py /usr/share/backintime/kde4
    #install plugin
    install -d /usr/share/backintime/plugins
    install –mode=644 ../plugins/kde4*.py /usr/share/backintime/plugins
    install: cannot stat `../plugins/kde4*.py’: No such file or directory
    make: *** [install] Error 1

    Hi

    I would like to see these features:

    * Incremental backups
    * SSH support

      with Karmic SSH works fine with sshfs as follows:
      1.)xxx@yyy:~$ sudo apt-get install sshfs
      2.)xxx@yyy:~$ sshfs ssh-user@ssh-server:[path] mount-point
      3.) use mount-point as destination

      ciao

    Testing Back In Time. It works fine! Very useful tool :-) Thanks.

    You need to post in BIG UPPERCASE LETTERS on the home page(!!), for Ubuntu users:

    To enable regularly scheduled backups, go to Applications->Ubuntu Software Center, search for “scheduled tasks”, and install the package, “Scheduled Tasks”.

    Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala does not come with cron pre-installed.

    Is there any future plans to add Amazon S3 support?

    This would make backup on Linux the ultimate!

    SSH support would be nice

    If you use Ubuntu and try to backup your home directory when you have mounted network shares, this tip may be of some help.

    Stops Back in Time trying to back up the mounted shares as well as your home folder.

    does this take into account file permissions? I want to be able to make a backup of my /home, /etc, and /opt folders (and maybe 1 or 2 others), but I know that some programs seem to ignore file permissions, and gives perm only to root.. I think this is the program I’ve been looking for as a backup solution, I just need to know about the permissions. thanks!
