Package: backuppc
Version: 4.4.0-2
Severity: important
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

The web interface doesn't correctly manage accents in BackupFilesOnly or BackupFilesExclude.
If I put the word "Vidéos", it saves "Vid\x{e9}os" in the config file and doesn't detect the folder during backup.
If I write "Vidéos" directly in the config file, the web interface displays "Vidéos" but it detects correctly the folder during backup.

Hello,

Do you use rsync as Xfer method ?


I tried to reproduce with a fresh backuppc 4.4.0-3 installation on a
Debian Bullseye installation and rsync backup went smoothly with
"Vid\x{e9}os" in the config file !


(I am sorry, I do not know how to get all "System Information" from my
BackupPC server to tell bts.)

Regards,
Fernando

Hello,

    Yes, I'm use rsync.

    My variables :

        RsyncBackupPCPath : /usr/libexec/backuppc-rsync/rsync_bpc

        RsyncClientPath : /usr/bin/rsync

    The backup PC and client PC are a single PC.

    I'm not on a new installation. I was on Backuppc 3 before.

Regards,

Ghent
