Hi, Same here, different versions, also on a Gentoo box.
After an uncompleted rdiff-backup session (due to network error), the same error show up in my cron mail. The following command fixes the problem for me and a few others : $ ssh <backup_host> rdiff-backup --check-destination-dir <backup_dir> Cheers, Alex -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
