Package: obnam
Version: 1.13-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

The problem with nonexistent chunks still exists. I have tried to run Your 
software few times with options:

--fsck-fix --fsck-rm-unused --no-fsck-ignore-chunks --no-fsck-skip-dirs 
--no-fsck-skip-files --no-fsck-skip-generations 
--no-fsck-skip-per-client-b-trees --no-fsck-skip-shared-b-trees fsck

but every time there was a lot of messages like this:

chunk ... does not exist
checksum whole-file checksum mismatch

This means that fsck command does nothing and repository remains broken. Why 
this command does not remove references pointing to nonexistent chunk when it 
finds such ones? And what to do with "checksum mismatch"? Does this mean the 
file is broken? If so, why do You not remove them?

If there are no way to keep repository in consistent state, then we compelled 
to start new repository every time when it gets broken. This is bad methodology 
and if there are no other solutions, I am not sure that such backup software is 
usable at all. This is sad news.
