Bug Description
Binary package hint: sbackup
The sbackup config panel "Time" contains an option to either set the backups at "simple" or "precisely at" time. While the latter is quite obvious because it is explained in the following options which allow one to set the precise time, the former is completely mysterious to me. Nor have I found any doc anywhere that explains it.

Hi,
This "simply" option is meant for anacron . While using precisely you have to set the precise time for the backup, simply just ask you for a frequency (daily, monthly, weekly ) and will make the backup when the computer is found available for this ( some thing that precisely wouldn't do, if your computer is not up at the precise time, then it'll wait till the next scheduled time ).
Then simply was a word I chose myself because I couldn't find another one that would have fit. If you have another one that is better then just propose and it'll be changed .
Thank you
