Comment:

 I have looked into this on the XS side. I can't figure out how it is
 supposed to work. There seems to be a disconnect between how /var/www/ds-
 backup/ds-restore.php works, and how everything is set up on the
 filesystem.

  * /library/users/<SN> is has <SN>:<SN> ownership and 700 permissions. ds-
 restore.php cannot peek inside. I temporarily fixed to 755.
  * ds-restore.php looks for /library/users/<SN>/datastore-latest but this
 does not exist. datastore-current is where stuff is kept.
  * when modifying it to look for -current instead of -latest, it still
 fails, because it expects a symlink pointing to a directory which has a
 parseable date.

 I took a quick look in ds-cleanup.py looking for code that would take
 datastore-current, create the -latest symlink and a by-date snapshot, but
 I didn't see anything.

 How should this be working?
