[[ first thanks for a great program, I use it on MANY MANY machines
across 15+ architectures with few problems.]]
I am trying to backup a sparc machine (running linux) with BackupPC
2.0.2 from a linux machine. I am using rsh and rsync to do the
backup.
The full backups seemed to pass fine. The incrementals fail consistantly.
Here is the last xfer log:
Running: /usr/bin/rsh -l root sparc /usr/local/bin/rsync --server --sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group --devic
es --links --times --block-size=2048 --recursive --exclude=/proc --exclude=/tmp --exclude=/home --exclude=/build . /
Xfer PIDs are now 5820
Got remote protocol 24
Xfer PIDs are now 5820,5828

If I do a strace on the perl BackupPC_dump process I see this:

[[ repeats over and over ]]
It appears that the only remaining file to backup in /vmlinux which is
a 2 Meg file.
What it is doing?
Also is there a set of patches we should have applied to 2.0.2 to fix
know bugs? I know there were some updates to RsyncP, but I seem to
remember some other fixes.
