BTW, since rdiff-backup hasn't been updated since 2009, I started to
look around for an alternative.  Alas, rdiff-backup's capabilities seem
to be unique.  I wonder what will happen to it when python 2.x finally
goes away?

Hi Lew, I understand your worries but I have used it for more that 10

years and this was my first problem, so I'll stick to it.

Hi Andrea,

As will I (keep using it)!  I've also been using rdiff-backup for more
than 10-years and it's been a good experience.  I use it for everything
from backing up my local disks to other local disks, to backing
up remote co-lo servers, to backing up dozens of desktops and servers
onto centrally located servers with hundreds of terabytes of RAID6
storage.

I tried the repository that Joe Steele and you recommended and
my gzip.py problem is also gone!

Thanks for the help, this is open-source at it's best!

Regards,
Lew
