I'm learning, and trying to productively use, Rake for some sys-admin type
of tasks, and I've researched the 'Net, as well as various Ruby textbooks
which have a chapter or section on Rake, trying to solve a problem that I
posted last week on StackOverflow.com:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8323371/rake-file-task-is-not-triggered-b
y-source-target-file-dependency

Since then... crickets (no response to the post).

Are there any Rake/Ruby experts here in CLUE who'd be willing to look at the
above posting and give my question/problem a shot?  The posting is
self-contained, so I'll not repeat things here... Except to say Thanks for
whatever help someone might offer.

best regards,

I don't know anything about rake so I have some questions about the code.
If they're worth answering maybe that will help.

   tarDir = File.join BUPDIR, tarDirSuffix
   directory tarDir

What's "directory tarDir" and why does it come after the assignment?

   desc "Backup #{fn} to .../#{tarDirSuffix}"

What does this do?  It (and the lines after) doesn't seem to run.  Is that a
hint?

   file tar => [src] do |t|

This seems badly formed.  tar seems to be a variable containing the full
path to the backup file. 
src seems to be a variable containing the path to the source file.  What's
file?  Does it make sense to say "file => [src]"?

So I think your problem is not in the "is the file newer" logic but in your
"file tar ..." loop.

HTH,
Dave

Does just the last .bash* file get copied if it is newer?

I believe you keep redefining the task over and over so it is only dependent
on one file.
