backintime-gnome crashes after initial setup

[Peter Surňák]

Backintime version: 0.9.26
Gnome version:
Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic (beta)

How to reproduce:
1. Start backintime-gnome for the first time (or remove config).
2. System presents you with settings dialog (for backup). Keep default setting, change folder so it lets you save it. I also disabled original cron option.
Click OK.
3. The app crashes with this in console:

$ backintime-gnome

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/backintime/gnome/app.py", line 1056, in <module>

    new_iter = self.store_folder_view.append( [ item[0], rel_path, item[3], item[5], item[1], item[2], item[4] ] )
TypeError: value is of wrong type for this column

Notes:
I tried seveal combination of setting, always the same result.
If I try to run the app again (with config file in place), it will crash without even showing settings dialog. App window just flashes in and crashes immediately.

This is what I found in ".config/backintime/config":
config.version=2
snapshots.automatic_backup_mode=0
snapshots.cron.nice=false
snapshots.dont_remove_named_snapshots=true

Unfortunately this is a known bug in 0.9.26, the main bug has a fix that you can implement manually.

[Peter Surňák (okolnost)]

ok, thanks, that fix from the other bug does work for me fine

i would just suggest renaming that bug so it does not stand "as root" because that does not matter and in my case it was the reason i did not read that bug report before posting this one
