Re: [rdiff-backup-users] rdiff-backup crash

[Dave Hawkes]

I managed to fix the problem by lowering the terminal-verbosity setting 
to 4 from 5. It would appear that there was some contention for stdout, 
though I'm not sure how that could happen. The problem can likely be 
fixed with an exception handler around the code that writes to stdout 
and then deals with this event in an intelligent way.

Thanks
