Hello, my attention to this problem has been brought to by a grml-user who pointed me to #355178.
I tried to verify the problem, but failed with using librsync1 0.9.7-1 and rdiff-backup 1.1.5-3 (from Debian/unstable). I don't have any problems with files >4GB, see: % ls -lah ** backup: total 5.2G drwxr-xr-x 3 mika mika 4.0K 2006-11-18 11:15 ./ drwxr-xr-x 4 mika mika 4.0K 2006-11-18 11:15 ../ drwx------ 3 mika mika 4.0K 2006-11-18 11:31 rdiff-backup-data/ -rw-r--r-- 1 mika mika 4.6G 2006-11-18 11:06 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 mika mika 524M 2006-11-18 10:58 testfile.tmp original: total 5.2G drwxr-xr-x 2 mika mika 4.0K 2006-11-18 11:15 ./ drwxr-xr-x 4 mika mika 4.0K 2006-11-18 11:15 ../ -rw-r--r-- 1 mika mika 4.6G 2006-11-18 11:06 testfile -rw-r--r-- 1 mika mika 524M 2006-11-18 10:58 testfile.tmp Running rdiff-backup works without any problems: % rdiff-backup --print-statistics original backup --------------[ Session statistics ]-------------- StartTime 1163846987.00 (Sat Nov 18 11:49:47 2006) EndTime 1163846987.71 (Sat Nov 18 11:49:47 2006) ElapsedTime 0.71 (0.71 seconds) SourceFiles 3 SourceFileSize 5485148160 (5.11 GB) MirrorFiles 3 MirrorFileSize 5485148160 (5.11 GB) NewFiles 0 NewFileSize 0 (0 bytes) DeletedFiles 0 DeletedFileSize 0 (0 bytes) ChangedFiles 0 ChangedSourceSize 0 (0 bytes) ChangedMirrorSize 0 (0 bytes) IncrementFiles 0 IncrementFileSize 0 (0 bytes) TotalDestinationSizeChange 0 (0 bytes) Errors 0 -------------------------------------------------- So can you please provide the necessary steps to reproduce the problem? regards, -mika-
