[SOLVED] Missing snapshot exclude file in antiX 19.3

[carolus]

Trying to create snapshot leads to

ERROR:Failed to open exclude file "/usr/local/share/excludes/iso-snapshot-exclude.list"

The fix is

sudo touch /usr/local/share/excludes/iso-snapshot-exclude.list

A better fix is to simply upgrade the iso-snapshot-antix app.

Known issues:

* If you want to use the iso-snapshot application, you must upgrade both iso-snapshot-antix and iso-template-antix to latest versions (0.3.20 and 19.14 repectively)

I ran into this problem in MX19.3 when I bleachbit custom and back files along with everything else I am supposed to wipe out right before doing a clean lean snapshot.. I learned NOT to check the box for custom and backup files, in bleachbit and all is golden.. But having a command line fix is even better!
