Hi, Nemo, I've applied a patch from Valery to fix this, I hope. If you can try Obnam from git master, could you do so and tell me if "obnam mount" now works for you? You don't need to run a new backup.
To do that, the following steps should work: * git clone git://git.liw.fi/obnam * cd obnam * python setup.py --quiet build_ext -i * ./obnam mount Add your usual command line arguments for "obnam mount" to that last line, but do run it with the leading ./ so that you run Obnam from the source tree and not the installed version. I am going to be making a new release soon. If you can't test this before then, that's OK, but if you can, that would be nice. An indication later on that it's fixed would also be useful. I'll leave the bug open until you've confirmed it works for you now. On Sat, Mar 22, 2014 at 06:55:56PM -0700, Nemo Inis wrote: > Hi Lars, > > I don't think the problem is fully fixed.
