[BackupPC-users] Fatal error for empty directory

2007-03-01 Thread Brendan Simon
I'm getting a fatal error when backing up an empty directory. BackupPC server is running Debian Sarge (backuppc 2.1.1-2sarge2) Server being backed up is running Debian Etch (rsync 2.6.9-2) Surely it must be legitimate to backup up an empty directory. Is this a bogus error message or maybe rsync
