Just wondering if anyone has experienced similar problems or has been
successful using rdiff-backup. For some time I've been getting errors
that look like they have something to do with modifying file access
and mod times. I have 'noatime' set in my /etc/fstab for my various
filesystems. I don't know if that is related to the problem or not.
The exception thrown by rdiff-backup (a python program) looks like:
Exception 'utime() arg 2 must be a tuple (atime, mtime)' raised of class
'exceptions.TypeError':
File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/rdiff_backup/highlevel.py", line 303, in

File "/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/rdiff_backup/rpath.py", line 567, in setmtime
self.conn.os.utime(self.path, (time.time(), modtime))
I'm using on my x86:
net-misc/rdiff-backup-0.10.1-r1
dev-lang/python-2.2.2
Thanks for any help/advice.
