The format option of pg_dump enables tar and custom archive file formats in
addition to the default plain-text file containing SQL commands.

When either the tar or custom format are selected the behaviour of database=all is changed to no longer dump a single file via pg_dumpall. Instead pg_dumpall
is called once to export the "global" data (roles & tablespaces) and then
pg_dump is called once for each non-template table in the database.

To support the GZIP and GZIP_OPTS variables in backupninja and to give the
default --rsyncable gzip compression flag a chance at working on a PostgreSQL
backup, the custom output is forced to not use compression. Instead compression
is done via a pipe to gzip. Hopefully this benefits rsync and rdiff-backup
style backups for reduced backup and storage costs that outweigh the
restoration ones.

... so that this option can be disabled on systems that don't support it.
This also allows to use another compression program, such as pbzip2 on SMP
machines (closes Roundup bug #2405).

reportspace: skip non-directories and places that don't exist on the local filesystem (Closes: #536049)

... hoping it will help supporting *BSD some day.

The modelines added match the emacs lines already present and also set
the filetype to sh (just like the emacs lines).

Previously, there were many indentation styles in use: Real tabs, 2, 3
or 4 spaces, mixing these within the same file, function or even within
a single line.

This commit changes all bash scripts in the handlers, src and lib dirs
to use consistent indentation: three spaces are now used everywhere.
Other files (e.g. Makefiles) are left untouched.

Additionally, this commit removes all trailing whitespace.

added ale to AUTHORS for ldap fixes
adjusted sys handler to allow for turning off of sfdisk (#404071)

and md5sum locations

vservers and mysqld wasn't running or mysqldump didn't exist would cause
a zero byte backup file

removed sys vserver not running noise report (anarcat suggestion)

backupninja and ninjahelper: have find following symlinks for config files also work on sarge, by replacing -L with -follow

anarcat

Add fix from anarcat for ${configdirectory} in ninjahelper, also add -L to find to follow symlinks in case this
directory is actually not a directory, but instead a symlink to somewhere else

silently causing me much confusion, so I added -L to find and an if statement to
spit something out so its obvious

a configurable admingroup to be set, instead of forcing it to be root),
closes debian bug#370396
