Bug#198554: O: kbackup -- A console single host backup solution for various media



Package: wnpp
Version: unavailable; reported 2003-06-23
Severity: normal

I intend to orphan the kbackup package. It's not maintained anymore by its
author and has lots of bugs.
You should try backuppc which will enter the Debian archive soon !!


The package description is:
 From the Documentation:
 .
 It is one of the most powerful backup packages around, supporting
 a wide range of devices and options. For reasons of portability and
 reliability it uses the well-established afio and tar programs for
 writing archives.
 .
 It greatly extends the capabilities of these archive handlers, providing
 all the features you might expect from a full-fledged backup system.
 It can be easily and extensively configured and operated with a user
 friendly menu interface and can also run automatically for doing scheduled
 backups without user interaction.
 .
 Among the features are:
 compressed archives, encrypted archives, double buffering, automatic handling
 of multi-volume archives, tape archives, floppy archives, hard disk archives,
 file archives, incremental backups, scheduled backups, extensive manual.
