rdiff-backup 1.1.14
I had tried rdiff-backup from stable, which is what this box runs, but ran into
some errors that some online
searching indicated were fixed in a newer version of rdiff-backup, so I
modified /etc/apt/sources.list to
include testing, and then installed rdiff-backup with "sudo aptitude -t testing
install rdiff-backup", and
now get the errors above.
(I also just now changed testing to unstable in sources.list, did an "aptitude
update", then "sudo aptitude
-t unstable install rdiff-backup", but nothing new was installed.)
I've just now created a dummy directory named /usr/local/BUB, and tried "sudo
rdiff-backup /home/
/usr/local/BUB", and am not getting any messages, neither errors nor other
feedback -- but if I manually do
an "ls" in the BUB directory I see that directories are being created, so it
looks like the program works
fine when the destination is a local non-smb filesystem.
