rdiff-backup is failing during the "sanity check" phase, where it just does some basic stuff to a directory and makes sure the results make sense. In this case it seems it is trying to touch the file mentioned in the error message, and its failing with ENOENT. Maybe after it fails you can try creating that file, and see if it works. -- Ben Escoto
