[rdiff-backup-users] Exception 'UnicodeFile instance has no attribute 'readline'' raised of class 'exceptions.AttributeError':

[Self biasresistor]

Hello,
I am using rdiff on a DEBIAN 5.0 and i backup files from the same disk (i am using it to conserve version of my file system) but when i tried to restore a file i have an error.
So i create a file TESTETSTEST.txt with a "e" inside ,i launch a backup;i add a anothe "e" in the file and then i obtain TESTETSTEST.txt.2009-05-26T16\:09\:06+02\:00.diff.gz

So i tried to recover it in test.txt:

rdiff-backup TESTETSTEST.txt.2009-05-26T16\:09\:06+02\:00.diff.gz test.txt

 but i have the same error...its strange because the file is very simple,with only to characters and only one modification!!
Here the error:

rdiff-backup TESTETSTEST.txt.2009-05-26T16\:09\:06+02\:00.diff.gz test.txt

AttributeError: UnicodeFile instance has no attribute 'readline'

As you can see the error seems to be:
AttributeError: UnicodeFile instance has no attribute 'readline'

Any sugestions are welcomed!
Thanks all
