Hi,
I'm running a machine with 512MB ram and 1GB swap and BackupPC is
triggering Linux's OOM (the out of memory killer) and that's making it
impossible to backup my main machine.

rsync is at 256m (see below). How can I reduce

I figured out how to trigger the bug.
I previously had:
$Conf{Full
I tracked down the bug. When I changed the config file, it caused
a problem where something wasn't defined that should have been.
I uncommented the line
#printf("Deleting backup $i ($prevFull)\n");
and added some additional prints.
Deleting backup 3 (2)
Deleting backup 2 (1)
Delet

Sorry, I haven't had time to check into this.
Oh, no problem at all, Craig. Sorry if my impatience sounded like it
