Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rdiff-backup
1. mount Windows share
//backup/notebooks on /media/backup type cifs (rw,mand)
2. In Keep, configure backup of a local directory that resides on a ext3
file system to CIFS share
3. Start backup
A message windows containing the following test appears:
