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):

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:

backup.general/2005-04/msg00031.html

But the updates suggested here are already in place.
