Public bug reported: Binary package hint: rdiff-backup
Couldn't get reportbug to work, so submitting here instead: Package: rdiff-backup Version: 1.1.15-1 Severity: important *** Please type your report below this line *** I just installed Hardy amd64 in place of a previous 32-bit Debian instance. Now rdiff-backup is having problems: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/rdiff-backup", line 23, in <module> rdiff_backup.Main.error_check_Main(sys.argv[1:]) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/rdiff_backup/Main.py", line 302, in error_check_Main try: Main(arglist) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/rdiff_backup/Main.py", line 322, in Main take_action(rps) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/rdiff_backup/Main.py", line 278, in take_action elif action == "backup": Backup(rps[0], rps[1]) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/rdiff_backup/Main.py", line 341, in Backup backup.Mirror_and_increment(rpin, rpout, incdir) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/rdiff_backup/backup.py", line 51, in Mirror_and_increment DestS.patch_and_increment(dest_rpath, source_diffiter, inc_rpath) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/rdiff_backup/backup.py", line 243, in patch_and_increment ITR(diff.index, diff) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/rdiff_backup/rorpiter.py", line 281, in __call__ last_branch.fast_process(*args) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/rdiff_backup/backup.py", line 689, in fast_process if self.patch_to_temp(mirror_rp, diff_rorp, tf): File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/rdiff_backup/backup.py", line 556, in patch_to_temp rpath.copy_attribs(diff_rorp, new) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/rdiff_backup/rpath.py", line 176, in copy_attribs rpout.chown(*rpout.conn.user_group.map_rpath(rpin)) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.5/rdiff_backup/rpath.py", line 903, in chown else: os.chown(self.path, uid, gid) OverflowError: signed integer is greater than maximum Looking around the net, this looks like some kind of 64-bit problem with odd uid's/gid's. According to this link, there is a workaround/patch for this problem: http://osdir.com/ml/sysutils.backup.rdiff- backup.general/2005-04/msg00031.html But the updates suggested here are already in place. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers hardy-updates APT policy: (500, 'hardy-updates'), (500, 'hardy-security'), (500, 'hardy') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-16-generic (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages rdiff-backup depends on: ii libc6 2.7-10ubuntu3 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii librsync1 0.9.7-1build1 Library which implements the rsync ii python 2.5.2-0ubuntu1 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-support 0.7.5ubuntu1 automated rebuilding support for p Versions of packages rdiff-backup recommends: pn python-pylibacl <none> (no description available) pn python-pyxattr <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information ** Affects: rdiff-backup (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- getting "OverflowError: signed integer is greater than maximum" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/245844 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
