Package: rdiff-backup
Version: 1.1.5-3
Followup-For: Bug #386983

Hi,

I've looked into this at this weekend's BSP, here's the other results
besides the downgrade:
This is upstream bug #16852.
I've tested rdiff-backup with local, nfs, cifs (smbfs) and vfat
destination directories, as Marc already mentioned, this bug only
showed with cifs.

The problem happens in the case sensitivity test like this:
1. file "A" is created
2. lstat() on file "a" is done and succeeds
3. file "a" is deleted which actually deletes "A" on the fs
4. lstat() on file "A" is done and wrongly succeeds raising the
   assertion

For vfat, which also is case insensitive, it works and the lstat() in
step 4 correctly fails.
