Version: 0.13.4-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
rdiff-backup seems to report unchanged files as changed:
rdiff-backup --exclude-filelist-stdin --print-statistics --verbosity 5
--force --remote-schema 'ssh -C -l admin -o "userknownhostsfile
../host-key" -i ./ssh-key %s sudo
rdiff-backup --server' remotehost::/ remotehost
<snip>
Starting mirror / to remotehost
Processing changed file .
Processing changed file bin
Processing changed file bin/gunzip
Processing changed file bin/gzip
Processing changed file bin/uncompress
Processing changed file bin/zcat
Strangely, this doesn't happen for every file on the system, but I can
confirm that neither gunzip, gzip, uncompress nor zcat have changed
since the last backup. A truckload of other files shows this behavior
as well.
Am I doing something wrong?
Greetings
Marc

That they are. Thanks for trying to reproduce this, and if it happens
again, definitely let me know.
