Hi Grant
The last releases of rdiff-backup were Feb 2009 (1.2.8 and 1.3.3) so
these *should* have included the fix described in the thread you
found. But maybe it wasn't included or maybe it doesn't work - or
maybe you have verbosity set to 5 or higher (though this does not
appear from the line you gave).
Anyway the error message is not significant, I suggest that (as
another poster suggested in the same thread) you just filter the
output through a pipe to remove messages relates to .gvfs thus:
rdiff-backup --... / /media/usbdisk/repository|grep -v
"^ListError.*/\.gvfs"

I'm using this line to back up my files:

--include '/home/grant/backup' --include '/var/lib/portage/world'

/media/usbdisk/repository
I get this even though the file's path is excluded:
ListError home/grant/.gvfs [Errno 13] Permission denied:
'/home/grant/.gvfs'
I found this thread from 2008 which describes the problem and
indicates that the fix was committed to CVS:

I'm on rdiff-backup-1.3.3. Is there a good way to avoid this
error?
