[rdiff-backup-users] what can I do if all goes wrong?

[Farkas Levente]

hi,
it seems our backup directory has some problem with rdiff-backup-0.12.5:
-------------------------------------
# rdiff-backup -l 
/mnt/backup/red/home/samba/groups/tordelo/SABLONOK/gazdasag-grafikak/02ked\ 
-\ Lakossagi\ bankkartyak.qxd
Fatal Error: Previous backup to /mnt/backup/red seems to have 
failed.Rerun rdiff-backup with --check-destination-dir option to 
revertdirectory to state before unsuccessful session.
-------------------------------------
so I do:
-------------------------------------
# rdiff-backup --check-destination-dir /mnt/backup/red
Traceback (most recent call last):

    raise ValueError, "CRC check failed"

-------------------------------------
so what can I do?
thanks in advance.
