@InvisibleRasta this package provides 2 pairs of systemd service and timer.

You just need to enable one timer at your choice:

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable timeshift-boot.timer # or timeshift-hourly.timer

Reboot your system, wait 10+delta minutes to let the timer trigger (OnBootSec=600 in /usr/lib/systemd/system/timeshift-boot.timer) and make sure that the backup is present in timeshift GUI

You are right. I have modified the permissions, thanks thanks for reporting the bug! @rab0171610

Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong. Systemd entries in the journal show that the timeshift .service and .timer files are marked executable: " is marked executable. Please remove executable permission bits. Proceeding anyway." Maybe the correct permissions should be 644 in the PKGBUILD, not 755? It works either way, but 644 keeps these messages from appearing in the syslog.
