Congrats!!! Much better than Back in Time.

This version does not give me the option to backup every hour (I know I am mad) ...

Just wanted to follow-up on my prior comment and say that Rob and Phillipe were able to get me through the issues with updating to Time Drive 0.2. Thanks, guys!

Okay, there's been an updated version of Time Drive 0.2 that will run on Ubuntu 8.04 but apparently the settings and snapshots created in Time Drive 0.1 aren't usable by Time Drive 0.2.

I think it needs to be made clear to users and potential users of Time Drive that updates to the software may make later versions incompatible with earlier versions.

Thanks for the instructions. Unfortunately, the new version of the program doesn't run on my machine. Do I post bug reports on launchpad or on flyspray?

@ Vince,

Unfortunately, not yet. I've been wanting to put together proper packages (an installer for Mac OS X and Windows that contain all of the dependencies and .deb packages for Ubuntu), but keep banging my head on the actual execution. (Who would have thought that packaging software for distribution would be MUCH harder than actually writing it?)

But regardless, to upgrade all you need to do is delete the old Time Drive directory and add the new one. The program also uses a config file (which you can find in ~/.config/Oak-Tree/Time Drive.conf), that you may want to delete if upgrading from a very early version (prior to 0.1.10), but might not be necessary.

Then just download the new version. The new version does include a python setup script, but isn't necessary to use. You can open the program by just typing ./time-drive at the program root directory.

Cheers,

Rob
