Howdy. MacOS X puts nobody's UID at -2 in /etc/passwd, which comes out to 4294967294.
Even with a current (2.6.1) Python interpreter, the call to tmp_rp.chown(uid+1, gid+1) # just choose random uid/gid in FSAbilities.set_ownership() results in an OverflowError. Perhaps it would make sense to hardcode the UID we test with to something known to be reasonable? _______________________________________________ rdiff-backup-users mailing list at [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/rdiff-backup-users Wiki URL: http://rdiff-backup.solutionsfirst.com.au/index.php/RdiffBackupWiki
