You really want to see it?? OK:

    rdiff-backup \
        --api-version 201 \
        --no-ssh-compression --null-separator \
        backup \
        --exclude-sockets \
        --exclude-globbing-filelist <(tr '\n' '\0' <"~/rback/exclude-F36" || 
echo -n 'Abort!') \
        --exclude-globbing-filelist <(tr '\n' '\0' <"~rback/histfiles-F36") \
        --exclude-globbing-filelist "~/rback/exclude-F36-auto" \
        --preserve-numerical-ids \
        --print-statistics \
        / "$Server::/media/sysbk/lenovo-F36

There's nothing in there that should affect /usr/share/zoneinfo.
