[BackupPC-users] REGRESSION WITH FIX: parity command runs when parity is

Hello!

In BackupPC 3.1.0, if I were to set the parity of an archive ($parfile) to 0, the parity would not run. That meets what the documentation says. However, in 3.2.0, the parity still runs, even when set to 0.

Here is the relevant code for 3.1.0 (BackupPC_archiveHost line 148):

if ( $parfile != 0 ) {

Here is the relevant code for 3.2.0 (line 157):

if ( length($parfile) ) {

Obviously, these two are not the same. The length of my $parfile when set to "0" is *not* zero! I'm not sure why the line was changed between 3.1.0 and 3.2.0. I don't want to break someone else's system. So should maybe these two be combined? Something like:

- if ( length($parfile) ) {
+ if ( length($parfile) && $parfile != 0 ) {
