I am running rdiff-backup with the --exclude-sockets option, but I am
still getting this kind of error for every socket:
ListError private/var/launchd/0/sock [Errno 1] Operation not
permitted: '/private/var/launchd/0/sock'
Good catch! If the user had extended attributes support enabled (as
you
did), rdiff-backup tried to read/set the extended attributes on the
socket. However, sockets don't have extended attributes on Mac OS X or
Linux and this attempt generates an error. I have patched this in CVS
and the fix will be in the next release of rdiff-backup.
I believe that the same thing is still happening with fifos. I have --
exclude-fifos, but still get:
ListError private/var/spool/postfix/public/pickup [Errno 1] Operation
not permitted: '/private/var/spool/postfix/public/pickup' ListError
private/var/spool/postfix/public/qmgr [Errno 1] Operation not
permitted: '/private/var/spool/postfix/public/qmgr'
