"earliest of one month" doesn't work

[Junien F]

Hi,

I have a backup source (24b8b48f-0b3f-4172-88c5-4767dd5ba5b1 in our turku) with retention "last 5 days, earliest of month" but turku is only keeping 5 days worth of backups.

I expect the backup of the 1st of each month to be available through the month.

Thanks

Hi, the format is "earliest of 1 month", not "earliest of month" or "earliest of one month".

Yet the default is "earliest of month" : https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~turku/turku/turku-api/view/head:/turku_api/models.py#L331

Setting back to Invalid, since it technically is, but thanks for discovering this :) Actually it turned out the code was correct, but cowboys we had in place for the attic to link-dest migration was breaking retention policies. This has been fixed, and is being tracked in cRT#119002.
