Hi Thomas,
I know this is kind of grasping at straws but ...

I use rdiff-backup fairly often and have not had this problem. However,
I recently got a few errors on an 'rsync' run. The errors occurred on
only four or five seemingly unrelated files and, while I no longer have
the exact error message, I do recall that they were quite misleading.
After several hours of "poking around" it turned out my backup hard
drive was failing. So, as I said, it's a shot in the dark but ... have
you checked your drive? I didn't find my problem until I ran 'e2fsck'
with '-c' (non-destrutive bad block check). Running 'e2fsck
-f ...' (i.e. without '-c') said everything was fine.
Cheers
Leland
