Re: [rdiff-backup-users] MacOS X problems

[Scott Bender]

Sorry to keep bugging you about this. Is there anything I can do to help
resolve this? I'm a programmer and I know python well, although I haven't
taken the time to review enough of you code to fix the problem myself. If
you can point me in the right direction, I may be able to resolve it.

thnks,
-=Scott
