On the 2nd April Holger suggested it needed a "proper" fix with a temporary work-around, but I haven't actually implemented that yet. I wanted to sit down and make sure I understood the repercussions from his patch before I applied it, and haven't had time, and priority is low since it hasn't happened again yet. Using rsync for backup, I'm getting incremental backups with no content (except .) which are marked as successful (since one directory was backed up), and all old files/directories are removed. The next backup (incr or full) tries to download ALL files again. Also, do you have any comment/statement on the current and future direction of backuppc? Would you consider adding commit permissions for other contributors, allowing others to make releases, will you likely have more time to work on backuppc or is the current state of affairs likely to continue, etc.... I'm not in any way trying to suggest the job you have done to date is anything short of fantastic, we (me at least) really appreciate all the work you have done and are doing (even the work we can't see and know nothing about) :) It has resulted in a really useful, and very important application. However, perhaps it is time to create a small co-ordinated team to help you get things done, or even just maintain the old version of backuppc, etc...
