I've been using this port sysutils/pdumpfs for a while now for backups, and have hit a problem. I've tried emailing the author but had no response. According to his website, there have been no updates to this since August 2002.
The problem would appear to be an issue with some size, counter, or something overflowing. It's written in Ruby, which means I am totally lost. Can someone give me a clue as to where I should be looking?
The machibe is running 4.8-RELEASE, Generic kernel.

the output from the program (as forwarded to me via email from cron) is simply:

[comtinues ok to end..]
At the end of each block of errors, it seems to miss the first part of the next line. I'm not sure if this is significant?!
Anyway I know nothing about Ruby - what should i be looking for in the script? Are there type definitions I can add for 'bignum' anywhere?
Thanks in advamce,
Rob
