The draksnapshot configuration tool also received the following fixes: - it stops saving config when clicking Close (#39790); one has to click on Apply in order to save the config - on first run, it offers backup in mounted disc path, instead of defaulting to some place in the root filesystem which could previously be filled up (#39802) - it no longer offers to configure some obscure advanced options - it now allows for disabling backups - it generates anacron-friendly cron files _______________________________________________________________________ References: https://qa.mandriva.com/39790 https://qa.mandriva.com/41107 https://qa.mandriva.com/41176 https://qa.mandriva.com/44434 _______________________________________________________________________ Updated Packages: Mandriva Linux 2008.1: 902cc5aeeef370e8454a80cc388e7568 2008.1/i586/draksnapshot-0.19-2.1mdv2008.1.noarch.rpm d75982868efcf354996b7adb613ad215 2008.1/SRPMS/draksnapshot-0.19-2.1mdv2008.1.src.rpm Mandriva Linux 2008.1/X86_64: eb7fb53588eb84b49984ac51f3db6d81 2008.1/x86_64/draksnapshot-0.19-2.1mdv2008.1.noarch.rpm d75982868efcf354996b7adb613ad215 2008.1/SRPMS/draksnapshot-0.19-2.1mdv2008.1.src.rpm _______________________________________________________________________ To upgrade automatically use MandrivaUpdate or urpmi.
