Re: [rdiff-backup-users] segmentation fault

[Andrew Lare]

There does appear to be a limit on large files.  The problem developed 
when a 6 GB file was downloaded to the system.  Once this file was 
removed and the associated backup file for it (which ironically, was 
only about 5.3 GB) was removed, the segfaults disappeared.
