Re: [rdiff-backup-users] Problem with sshfs

[Wilson Azevedo]

I had the same problem. Searching on the archive's list I've found 
that it was a bug on the 1.5 version corrected on 1.6 and 1.7 versions.

I tried to install the 1.6 version but until now the install 
instructions do not work. It is something hard for linux beginners 
like me. If someone else could help us...
