Package: rdiff-backup
Version: 1.2.1-1
Severity: normal

Hi,

my system has 1 Gig of /tmp, and rdiff-backup happily fills that up
and then fails. To make things worse, it fails with a generic "No
space left on device" error and frees up /tmp again before dumping me
back to my shell, leaving absolutely no trace that it wasn't the
backup destination (which has a couple of hundred gig still free) that
was full.

It should _AT LEAST_ say that it was /tmp with no space left.
Preferably, it would not dump gigabytes of work data in /tmp - heck,
who has a /tmp this large?

Greetings
Marc
