Found a workaround: If I remove the [cC]ache regex in the exclude list, it works. My kids are heavy browser users (mostly chrome, but also firefox). The exclude.list is mostly lots of lines of the form:
/home/<user>/.cache/google-chrome/... I see about 8,000 lines of it. This workaround means I'm backing up some 8,000 unnecessary files, but it'll do for now. -- sbackup: error in protocol: end of stream https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/661746 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
