An error message like this has previously been associated with
backing up to a case-insensitive file system, especially when a
filename changes its case. What filesystem are you backing up to?

ext4, but I'm backing up *from* NTFS.

Now, I'm having the same problem on a different backup; source and
target are on the same ext4 filesystem (which may seem kinda stupid, but
the source is a mirror of the data I want to backup).

It looks like the assertion
assert not incrp.lstat(), incrp
throws an exception unless incrp.data['type'] doesn't equal None, in
other words, if the file exists.

I attached the complete output.

Kind regards,

Tobias

Hello,

I tried to make my regular backup this weekend, and rdiff-backup
aborted with the attached output. As there doesn't seem to be a
meaningful error message but some tracebacks and data dumps, I'm
somewhat lost and assume that this is not supposed to happen.

How should I proceed with my backup? Just retry running
rdiff-backup, or should I rather post this on rdiff-backup-bugs?

I didn't touch the backup directory since then, in case it's any
help to look something up.

I'm using rdiff-backup 1.3.3.

Kind regards,

Tobi
