Title:
  Restore function of generated snapshots does not work

Status in “reprepro” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  reprepro can generate snapshots of distributions. But the restore of a
  snapshot does not work.

  Steps to reproduce the problem in a clean directory:

  1) mkdir conf/
  2) cat > conf/distributions << EOF
  Codename: testcode
  Description: testdesc
  Architectures: amd64 source
  Components: main
  Contents: .gz
  EOF
  3) reprepro includedeb testcode hello-debhelper_2.7-2_amd64.deb #Include a deb
  4) reprepro gensnapshot testcode mysnapshot # generates a snapshot under dists/testcode/snashot
  5) reprepro includedeb testcode hello-debhelper_2.7-2dtag1_amd64.deb #Include another deb (this is just another rebuild with a different version number)
  6) restore testcode mysnapshot hello-debhelper #should restore the package but nothing happens

  The last step should restore the package but that does not work. The
  fix for that can be found upstream:
