Public bug reported:

Please see this thread for details:

I have been unable to get much attention in the above thread, so I'm
posting this bug.  I think this a critical issue, for it has to do with
data availbility and possibly data integrity breachs within Feisty.  I
also suspect that the Windows-ext2-mount-via-ifs-driver (see details in
above thread) may contribute to this, but that's only speculation (based
upon the fact that I'm quite surprised that this error was not caught in
community Feisty testing, and the only reasonable explanation I have for
this is the Windows-ext2 mount stuff, or a poor Ubuntu testing process;
I'd more likely guess the former).

Note that the "In what package did you find this bug?" may not be
pertinent for this issue, for it seems premature to attempt to isolate
this issue to any one package.  Further, it may not be the fault of any
one package but a combination or some...or something like that.

Additional info:

Note that I experience data-access problems within the file system
mounted on Feisty separate from rdiff-backup.  eg, when rsync-ing the
file system from one machine to another across a network, the operation
hangs (don't have more info at this time).  I'm not certain if this
happened before or after the aforementioned rdiff-backup run.

Also note that I've been running these same processes/operations for
years on the exact same hardware prior to the Feisty (7.04) install.  I
install Feisty, these symptoms arise.  I back-rev the install to Dapper
(and re-load the data from backup) and I experience no symptoms.

This bug doesn't take long to duplicate in my system.  I have not
attempted to duplicate on more than one hardware system.
