Hi,

rdiff-backup crashes with the following traceback when copying one of
the files with question marks. They might in reality have chinese
characters or something..
...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/rdiff-backup", line 23, in ?
rdiff_backup.Main.Main(sys.argv[1:])
line 352, in next
del self.cache_dict[self.cache_indicies[0]]

Is this a complete traceback? What's the error? Index not found or
something?

I can't remember now - for the record in this particular instance, the
files where so corrupt that windows couldn't read them either. It seems
it was the result of a broken My Briefcase thingo. So, I deleted them
from the source and everything went fine after that.

If it happens again I will give more logging its going to be hard to
duplicate given the circumstances
