 You seriously expect people to run a find |xargs on the stuff I backup
 every time before running duplicity?
 
 no, not everytime; i think negative mtimes are an indication of something
 going wrong somewhere, so a one-shot usage would be in order, don't you think?

They came up regularly.  Probably from samba shares or something.

touch?

there should be an
option to ignore those warnings.  Something like --ignore-negative-mtime
or similar.

the warning code is still present in 0.4.3, but i haven't ever seen that
warning pop up; is your problem still current?

Beware of bugs in the above code; I have only proved it correct, not tried it.
