Okay,
I've been doing some testing. I have the same version of rdiff-backup (1.1.4) on two different identical machines. Restoring on both machines yield different results. Machine A, doesn't restore at all, while Machine B does. Here's a snippet from verbose messages from each machine:

Machine A:
==============

Starting restore of status.fld.2006-07-29T20;05801;05803-05;05800.diff.gz to /staging/status-restored2.fld as it was as of Sat Jul 29 00:00:00 2006.
Processing changed file .
Regular copying () to /staging/rdiff-backup.tmp.1
Removing directory /staging/status-restored2.fld
Restore finished
Cleaning up


Machine B:
==================

Starting restore of mykeys.txt.2006-09-02T12:19:48-05:00.diff.gz to /groq/ghome/golden/mykeys-restored.txt as it was as of Sat Sep 2 12:19:48 2006.
Applying patch mykeys.txt.2006-09-02T12:19:48-05:00.diff.gz
Processing changed file .
Regular copying () to /groq/ghome/golden/rdiff-backup.tmp.1
Writing file object to /groq/ghome/golden/rdiff-backup.tmp.1
Copying attributes from () to /groq/ghome/golden/rdiff-backup.tmp.1
Setting time of /groq/ghome/golden/rdiff-backup.tmp.1 to 1157217582
Removing directory /groq/ghome/golden/mykeys-restored.txt
Renaming /groq/ghome/golden/rdiff-backup.tmp.1 to /groq/ghome/golden/mykeys-restored.txt
Restore finished
Cleaning up

Obviously, Machine A is missing some steps in the restore process, while Machine B performs like it should. What could be the issue here possibly?
