Install zfs-auto-snapshot on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS/Debian
zfs-auto-snapshot not being available for 16.04 was not a situation I thought I would run into, yet here we are, disappointed by Canonical once again.
In the meantime, I have ported the package from Trusty (14.04.5) to work on Xenial (16.04.1) and Debian Jessie.
You can download the Ubuntu 16.04 package here, and install it by running:
# dpkg -i zfs-auto-snapshot-trustyport.deb
You can download the Debian package here, and install it by running:
# dpkg -i zfs-auto-snapshot-debian.deb
(edit: I borked the permissions on the files in the Ubuntu .deb. You will need to chown them after install. The Debian package is correct.)
