Hi John,

Yes, this is ultimately due to a file corruption issue, probably  
related to inodes. The fact that it produced this particular error  
message is due to a typo in CVS -- thanks for testing! I have updated  
CVS and attached the replacement rorpiter.py file.

With this fixed file, you will see the appropriate warning message  
about your fs corruption. I suggest running rdiff-backup with -v5 to  
see which file has lead to this error.

Sorry for the delay in solving your problem; I've been away.


best,
Andrew
