Apps that don't allow for backup cause backup failure #643

Closed CurrentSubset68 closed 5 months ago

Apps that don't allow for backup that cause errors for seedvault don't get automatically skipped. i had to manually exclude every one of these apps for seed vault to work again. i feel like these should be excluded by default unless device to device backup is enabled. using the recently released calyx update. I'll also list some Possible coincidences since i'm not too familiar with how the backend works:

Possibly related to #575? edit: just saw #635 as well

What you describe does sound like a duplicate of #491, but without more information it is hard to say what exactly the issue(s) is/are you are observing.

As you need to eject the drive after using it, I already observed file system errors after not properly ejecting it which can cause issues with backing up as well.

Thanks for the reply. I'll close it since another issue and a pull request exists for it.
