Reading your error message, I agree there is no filename to be found – please run the rdiff-backup call once again, but with the parameter „--terminal-verbosity 5“ added to the command line (of course you may exchange the parameter with –v5 to get the same console output, but in this case you will log the lots of regression messages to the logfile in the rdiff-backup-repository as well).
I think this will reveal the gz-file in question. It should be the newest gzipped increment of the file that rdiff-backup tried to regress when the error occurs. If the filename is still not clear, try exchanging 5 to 8 and recall rdiff-backup again.
Hope that helps,
David.

Andrew is the current maintainer of rdiff-backup so his word is law!
It's not exactly clear which file I have to remove and how.
