[BackupPC-users] warning message when using sudo tar script on localhost

[Chris A. <chr...@mc...>]

List,

I implemented the tar script option for backing up my localhost as per:
 http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/localhost.html

so the "if you are more cautious" option where you create a script that
runs "tar -c $*"

When an incremental is run I get the following warning message in the
log 

Running: /usr/bin/sudo /root/tar_create -c -v -f - -C /etc --totals
--ignore-failed-read --newer=2012-11-22 19:00:00 .
incr backup started back to 2012-11-22 19:00:00 (backup #387) for directory /etc
Xfer PIDs are now 30071,30070
/bin/tar: Option --after-date: Treating date `2012-11-22' as 2012-11-22 00:00:00
/bin/tar: 19\:00\:00: Warning: Cannot stat: No such file or directory

This does not happen if I use the less cautious option of letting backuppc run tar as root.

Chris.
