Please, accept this patch, which checks for incorrect file owners:

! os.chown(self.path, uid, gid)
self.data['uid'] = uid
self.data['gid'] = gid
Without this patch rdiff-backup crashes on this files:

Hi,
Actually, this is a bug in Python. My fix was accepted in Python 2.5.3
and above.
You can see the Python bug report: http://bugs.python.org/issue1747858
And the rdiff-backup report which prompted it:
http://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/index.php?17851
But thanks for posting about it -- I went back to the Python sources
and noticed that there are two other cases which need to be patched as
well (lchown and fchown).
regards,
Andrew
