Package: rdiff-backup Version: 1.2.8-1 Severity: normal rdiff-backup appends strings like 2009-07-04T03:32:41+02:00.missing to files it stores in the destination. If the original filename is already very long (e.h. 230 bytes), this will cause the backup not to be storable, because today's filesystems can only store files up to 255/256 bytes. rdiff-backup should probably catch ENAMETOOLONG and take a countermeasure to ensure that it still saves the data and is able to restore it properly.
