Hi,
I just ran into this bug while using rdiff-backup.
This was with a 4.2 Gig Zope Data.fs database file. I ignored it for a
bit hoping it would go away. It didn't, but I was relieved to learn
that this was a known bug with a patch.
I spent quite a lot of time yesterday, patching librsync and rebuilding
rdiff-backup against it.
Adding the patch is trivial. Basically, trim it a bit and add it as
debian/patches/4Gigbug.patch.
You can get librsync and rdiff-backup debs and deb sources (for sarge)
from
deb http://dulci.org/~faheem/debian/ sarge main contrib non-free
deb-src http://dulci.org/~faheem/debian/ sarge main contrib non-free
As expected, it made the problem go away.
It would be a good thing if this fix could go into librsync for etch.
Thanks. Faheem.
