Restore fails with tar error

using Webmin Version 1.500, Virtualmin Version 3.76.gpl on Debian 4.0 etch, I try to restore a Virtualmin-Backup from Webmin Version 1.500, Virtualmin Version 3.76.gpl on Debian 5.0 lenny.

But, I get the following error:

Starting restore of 1 domains from local file /home/falko/mydomain.de.tar.gz ..

Extracting backup archive file .. .. extraction of /home/falko/mydomain.de.tar.gz failed!

/bin/tar: Pattern matching characters used in file names. Please, use --wildcards to enable pattern matching, or --no-wildcards to suppress this warning.

.backup/*: Not found in archive

/bin/tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

Backup does not contain virtual server information for missing domain mydomain.de.

.. failed! See the progress output above for the reason why.

See https://www.virtualmin.com/node/13237

I could manage to do the restore by changing line 1093 in backup-libs.pl from

$extract = ".backup/*";

to

$extract = ".backup/";

Don't know if this is only system specific issue or a bug in virtualmin.

Closed (fixed)
