[Bruno: Would be great if you could comment on this one. Looks to me like we may only have to bump up a number, but maybe there are implications that I'm not aware off...]
Hi John, Thanks a lot for your bug report and your analysis of the problem. I don;t have any experience with tapes and Mondo Rescue, but I can confirm that the following is still even in the latest SVN in mondo/common/my-stuff.h: #define MAX_TAPECATALOG_ENTRIES 4096 ///< The maximum number of entries in the tape catalog. So, the question would be what a reasonable value for this couldlook like. Would 65536 be ok?
