Bug Description

Binary package hint: sobby

'sobby -c /etc/sobby.cfg' works and correctly saves to the autosave file as specified in sobby.cfg

'sobby -c /etc/sobby.cfg /var/lib/sobby/backup' restores from the backup, but fails to update the autosave file.

This is repeatedly causing data loss and makes the autosave file signficantly less useful (almost useless in fact) - bumping importance.

I definitely cannot reproduce this. Please show me your /etc/sobby.cfg. It should mention /var/lib/sobby/backup.

I then talked with an Ubuntu sysadmin on IRC, he showed me his configuration file and I told him how to fix this issue. If Sobby is granted a UVE for 0.4.4 this will also be fixed for Gutsy.
