yup, version 1.0.3, and librsync is 0.9.7 re-installed from source too. was experimenting by moving the remove before date up 1 day at a time, and it finally went, saying it was deleting that day, but it took everything before it too.
I think the data in the the rdiff-backup-data folder was corrupted for the days that wouldn't go away, and they weren't seen as increments. they were cleaned up when a valid increment was removed though. I guesse this one is solved for now, as i don't have any more bad backups to experiment with (should have backed-up the back-ups) On 1/13/06, Ben Escoto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >>>>> james bardin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >>>>> wrote the following on Fri, 13 Jan 2006 09:38:13 -0500 > > > > the dates on the filesystem match the dates in the names of the increments. > > i can't get any errors, it just says "No increments older than..." > > > > where should i start digging? > > python 2.4.2 > > rdiff-backup 0.13.4 > > Make sure version 1.0.3 (or 1.1.5) has this problem. 0.13.4 is an old > development version.
