Bug Description

In the rsnapshot.conf that is included with rsnapshot-1.3.1-3, there are paths as such:

#linux_lvm_cmd_lvcreate /path/to/lvcreate
#linux_lvm_cmd_lvremove /path/to/lvremove

Yes, I see they are commented out by default so somebody uncommenting them ought to fix the "/path/to/" to be the right path, but there is no reason for this. The file as shipped in the .deb ought to have the correct path in it already.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. It seems that your bug report is not filed about a specific source package though, rather it is just filed against Ubuntu in general. It is important that bug reports be filed about source packages so that people interested in the package can find the bugs about it. You can find some hints about determining what package your bug might be about at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage. You might also ask for help in the #ubuntu-bugs irc channel on Freenode.

To change the source package that this bug is filed about visit https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1064636/+editstatus and add the package name in the text box next to the word Package.

Odd.

This is what I am seeing after having installed a fresh rsnapshot 1.3.1-3 under Ubuntu 12.04.

andol@idaho:~$ grep -i "linux_lvm_cmd_" /etc/rsnapshot.conf
#linux_lvm_cmd_lvcreate /sbin/lvcreate
#linux_lvm_cmd_lvremove /sbin/lvremove
#linux_lvm_cmd_mount /bin/mount
#linux_lvm_cmd_umount /bin/umount
andol@idaho:~$
andol@idaho:~$ apt-cache policy rsnapshot
rsnapshot:
  Installed: 1.3.1-3
  Candidate: 1.3.1-3
...
andol@idaho:~$

Confirmed; the preparation of lvm in rsnapshot.conf was introduced in 1.3.1-2.
