Recently I noticed that whilst our backups work, there is always an error at the end of the log that reads like the text below:

INFO: adding notes to backup
INFO: basename: missing operand
INFO: Try 'basename --help' for more information.

TASK OK

Any ideas what is causing this and how to fix?
We have 7 proxmox servers with various backup locations, but all are showing the same error.
