Follow-up Comment #3:

Hi,

Thank you for reporting this error.

I have corrected the problem in CVS -- rdiff-backup will no longer have a
fatal error if it cannot handle an unknown Unicode character. The fix will be
present in rdiff-backup versions 1.1.17 and above.

Python 3 / 2.6 will introduce much better support for Unicode in Python. The
plan is for the next edition of rdiff-backup development (1.3.x and beyond) to
include complete support for Unicode (and never encounter an 'unknown'
character).


thanks,
Andrew
