Greetings.
I've got a report of include-globbing-filelist not working as expected.
The fedora bugreport is at:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=587758
Basically directories in the list with - are still being included in
the backup. ;(
Is this a known issue? Can anyone duplicate or see where the usage
above is not correct?
Thanks,
kevin
Kevin,
I have the same problem as you (files in a --exclude-globbing-filelist are
not being excluded. In my case the /mnt/backup drive is getting backed up on
itself!!). The weird thing is that I've got multiple machines with almost
identical rdiff-backup setup, and only one isn't working.
But then, 3 days after your post, Adrian Cox reported another bug:
http://old.nabble.com/max-file-size-prevents-backup-of-large-directory-td28788157.html
On a hunch, I checked my faulty machine: sure enough, I had added
"--max-file-size" a little while ago. Tried without -> everything works
perfectly now. So not only does the "--max-file-size" bug affect large
directories like Adrian's, it also completely messes up the exclusion
matching process!
See if you've got that option enabled, removing it may fix the problem for
you.
Cheers
Nemo
