Foreman Maintain

This is a minor issue happening when creating a backup in previously nonexistent directory, e.g.:

foreman-maintain backup online test
...
Check if the directory exists and is writable:                        [FAIL]
Postgres user needs write access to the backup directory 
Please allow the postgres user write access to /root/test/satellite-backup-2018-09-05-07-19-14 or choose another directory.
...
Running Failed backup cleanup
Clean up backup directory:                                            [OK]

However, only satellite-backup* is cleaned up, /root/test/ remains created.
On the other hand, doing the same with --preserve-directory:

foreman-maintain backup online --preserve-directory test2
...
Prepare backup Directory: 
Creating backup folder /root/test2                                    [OK]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Check if the directory exists and is writable:                        [FAIL]
Backup directory (/root/test2) does not exit.

Here /root/test2 is not even created, despite the preservation message
