Describe the bug

command not found: borg

Context

• Hardware: *Old laptop or computer *
• YunoHost version: 11.2.12
• I have access to my server: Through SSH | through the webadmin | direct access via keyboard / screen
• Are you in a special context or did you perform some particular tweaking on your YunoHost instance?: no
• Using, or trying to install package version/branch: 1.2.8~ynh1

Steps to reproduce

I upgraded borg, then I wanted to check the repository to validate everything, but borg is not found.

I think the backups worked, I’ll check online tomorrow if there was some new data on borgbase.com, my problem is : how to run borg to check/mount archives ?

[supermamie]

After some search in the logs (to be sure I have a backup), I found the new path for borg.
Here is the command I used : app=borg__2; BORG_PASSPHRASE="$(yunohost app setting $app passphrase)" BORG_RSH="ssh -i /root/.ssh/id_${app}_ed25519 -oStrictHostKeyChecking=yes " /var/www/${app}/venv/bin/borg list "$(yunohost app setting $app repository)"
Could this be somewhere in the documentation ?

Wouldn't it be better to depend on plain borg-backup from Debian, so that any admin can perform a borg list, instead of a venv version ?

app=borg__2; BORG_PASSPHRASE="$(yunohost app setting $app passphrase)" BORG_RSH="ssh -i /root/.ssh/id_${app}_ed25519 -oStrictHostKeyChecking=yes " /var/www/${app}/venv/bin/borg list "$(yunohost app setting $app repository)"

Uh, app=borg__2 ?

This worked for me with:

app=borg; BORG_PASSPHRASE="$(yunohost app setting $app passphrase)" BORG_RSH="ssh -i /root/.ssh/id_${app}_ed25519 -oStrictHostKeyChecking=yes " /var/www/${app}/venv/bin/borg list "$(yunohost app setting $app repository)"

It’s to be able to install any version, Debian is awesome but always late on everything 🙃

Uh, app=borg__2 ?

Yeah, I have 4 instances of borg installed, borg, borg__2, borg__3 and borg__4

Well... on the other hand, it provides /usr/bin/borg where its would be natural to find it. And if upstream versions tend to take time in being package, Debian wouldn't mind getting more help.
