You're probably facing
https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/blob/master/docs/FAQ.adoc#why-does-rdiff-backup-complain-about-command-line-interface-being-deprecated-even-though-im-using-the-new-syntax
(tl;dr: add `--api-version 201`).
Also it might just be me, but I can't find the updated docs for the
--check-destination-dir option, which is briefly refereed to in the man
page. Can we still use this option or is it deprecated? Again, can't
seem to use it without the warnings.
Did you check
https://github.com/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/blob/master/docs/migration.adoc#migration-from-old-to-new-cli
(tl;dr: it is deprecated, the new command is `regress`).

Thanks,

Hi,
is anybody still doing tests and/or planning to switch soon (when?) to
the new version 2.2.2?
I'm also done fixing the first "wave" of bug reports and wanted to
release a version 2.2.3 in the near future, but can wait if someone is
still working on their migration.
KR, Eric
