I think this is an absolutely huge step forward Andrew, I uninstalled TimeVault specifically because of problems with it creating its own happy directory to work in before the external drive was mounted, defeating the purpose of using an external drive.
I can't thank you enough for making these changes, I might just build and install your branch.
On the other hand, I think there needs to be some fundamental changes in both the backup daemon and the user interface before TimeVault could be included by default in Ubuntu, but what if? If things were fixed, this could be an incredible default app to provide Ubuntu users with peace of mind.
