This currently still happens in hardy:
$ rdiff-backup --list-increments /tmp/ttt
Fatal Error: Previous backup to /tmp/ttt seems to have failed.
Rerun rdiff-backup with --check-destination-dir option to revert directory to
state before unsuccessful session.
$ echo $?
1
$ rdiff-backup --list-increment-sizes /tmp/ttt
Time Size Cumulative size
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[..list of increments and their sizes...]
$ echo $?
0
I never had the opportunity to test the change owsla mentioned in the
first comment, but it should be trivial to test the behavior
independently on a destination dir that has had an interrupted write to
it.
