Bug hunting

I just discovered a minor bug in pyBackPack (as it's now called):

  • A user wants to backup her Firefox settings - so creates a backup set that just contains ~/.mozilla, and does a backup.
  • Something screws up Firefox's settings, so the user restores her latest .mozilla backup to her home directory.
  • The user then wonders where the hell the entire contents of her home directory have gone, and why only ~/.mozilla is left.
Whoops. Might need to fix that one before I release ;)
