Dominic, thanks for the help.
No changes to the exclusions, tried all the --exclude-something stuff.
I now started a completely new backup, which means loosing the history.
If somebody wants to look into it, the backup is still available. I'd
be glad to try things out and/or send any diagnost
I guess you already considered if you made any changes to your
system or to /etc/backup.list that might have caused the error to
occur?
You could try one or more of options --exclude-special-files
--exclude-sockets --exclude-other-filesystems...

Dominic, thanks for the tip, alas no luck. Didn't work with the changed
backup.list either.
- **/*~
- **/rdiff-backup.tmp.*
- **/#*#
- **/rdiff-backup.tmp.*
- /backup/usr/portage
- /backup/tmp
- /backup/var/tmp
- /backup/sys
- /backup/root
- /backup/var/log
- /backup/var/cache
- /backup/var/run
Jochen:
what if you change /etc/backup.list by removing the final slash from
/backup/dev/ i.e. /backup/dev
I think that with your backup list it tries to backup /backup/dev
(though not its contents) and maybe this causes the failure?

Hi,
I get a (repeatable) KeyError while backing up to sshfs using
rdiff-backup on linux (either version 1.2.8 or 1.3.3). My backups ran
normally for about a year, then this error came, and they don't work
since.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Regards,
Jochen
