Hi.  I was trying to remove older than on a remote backup server when I
got the following output:

rdiff-backup --force --verbosity 8 --terminal-verbosity 4
--remove-older-than 45D /mnt/backup/rdiff-backup-data

This is under Debian Leni and there is plenty of disk space left, so how
to fix this one?

Thanks in advance for any good ideas.
