It appears that rdiff-backup is escaping out the ';' escape character in
certain instances.
This happens on a redhat linux 7 server connecting to a OS X 10.5 box, both
are running rdiff-backup 1.1.15.
I¹ve managed to get it to happen in two instances: --remove-older-than and
--list-at-time
Any thoughts on how to fix this?
Thanks -

PS this is my first post on the list, so please be gentle if I¹ve
heinously violated some unknown-to-me list rule.
Below are the commands I issued (minus the server names) and the error
