Followup-For: Bug #714234
I incurred into this bug first on Fedora18 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=972370, filed on June 28th, 2013), and today on Debian Wheezy (7.1). On both systems, following the advice given inhttp://sourceforge.net/p/dump/bugs/157/ (created on 2012-06-21) works.
That is, installing dump version b42 allows greater than 0 levels of backups to be successfully restored. In the case of Debian, I could restore a filesystem removing dump-0.4b44-1 and installing dump-0.4b42-1 downloaded fromhttp://it.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/d/dump/dump_0.4b42-1_amd64.deb.
The filesystem to be restored is an ext4 one, formatted without the huge_file feature.
