Since this seems to be the only option I tried addeding a revision
library to /tmp and then add a script to crontab which touches the files
every hour to make sure they are not deleted. Unfortuanatly it doesn't
work. I get the same errors as before, this time just in the temp
directory. 

corrupt library (failed inode signature validation)
    archive: address@hidden
    revision: bdd--mainline--2.0--patch-10
You should remove this revision from your library.

If I remove the revisions and let it add them again (I've made the
library greedy) it works for the operation but fails later again with
the same error. 

Any new ideas or can anyone point out what I'm doing wrong? Maybe
touching the files will screw things up?

Thanx
