[root < at > thor home]# rpm -q python
python-2.2.3-2

same happens with 0.12 line of rdiff-backup.

Any ideas or patches to fix this issue?

The problem is with the backup_warn_if_infinite_regress. rdiff-backup
sees that you are trying to backup a directory into itself and wants
to warn you. But there was a bug in this code. Try these patches for 0.13.4:

http://savannah.nongnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/rdiff_backup/backup.py.diff?r1=1.26&r2=1.27&diff_format=u

http://savannah.nongnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/rdiff_backup/Main.py.diff?r1=1.73&r2=1.74&diff_format=u
