Bug Description

Binary package hint: storebackup

The storeBackupMount perl script tries to invoke 'storeBackup.pl', but the '.pl' extension has been removed in Ubuntu and hence it is not found. See line 454 of storeBackupMount:
  my $storeBackup = $pathStbu ? "$pathStbu/storeBackup.pl" : 'storeBackup.pl';

Solution... Remove the '.pl' from this line in two places.

(It should also be noted that all of the documentation refers to "storeBackup*.pl", which may be confusing to some users.)

This bug affects storeBackup 3.2-1 (Karmic and Lucid).

This bug occurs due to changes done by (former) Debian maintainer.
I now changed storeBackupMount[.pl] in a way it searches for storeBackup.pl *and* storeBackup.
It will be published with version 3.3, which probably will be released in a few weeks or a month or so.
If you want to test it before that date, please contact me.
