kde4plugin bug is related to kde4/qt4/pyKDE4 libraries. Maybe OpenSUSE 11.2 use different version of this libraries. Maybe older versions didn't crashed ...
If this answer your question I'll mark this bug as duplicate for bug 441628 since kde4plugin is the real problem. -- BiT continually stuck on Comparing snapshot...and permission problems https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/506876 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Back In Time Team, which is subscribed to Back In Time. Status in Back In Time: New Bug description: I'm posting this as requested by Dan on the Answers section https://answers.launchpad.net/backintime/+question/97137 BiT seems to have stopped working for me on a fresh installation of openSUSE 11.2. It seems to create the first snapshot fine but thereafter just gets stuck on Comparing snapshot. I have it configured to take a snapshot once every hour. I have the default excludes and tried adding .gvfs as an exclude (as mentioned in another thread) but couldn't. When I run BiT from the terminal as "backintime -b" it seems to run fine except I get a lot of permission denied errors. See output below.
