you know, a segfault is very unlikely to be an rdiff-backup problem. i'd be more tempted to blame the C compiler (which could be miscompiling something rdiff-backup uses) and/or the hardware. do you do anything crazy like run gentoo or any other distribution where you've (re)compiled binaries with your own optimisation options and/or with a bleeding edge gcc? do you overclock your hardware or use inexpensive (non-ECC) memory? one thing you could try here is running memtest86. since it's a consistent segfault it's more likely to be a miscompile than a hardware problem. if it were me i'd run the whole thing under gdb (and/or with a non-zero coredumpsize limit) and disassemble the faulty code... but that's not a solution for a beginner. -dean _______________________________________________ rdiff-backup-users mailing list at rdiff-backup-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/rdiff-backup-users Wiki URL: http://rdiff-backup.solutionsfirst.com.au/index.php/RdiffBackupWiki
