Those messages are coming from the server process. In order to separate them from messages to the client process, it is necessary to send them to stderr.

This is not a bug and is a necessary feature. If this output to the terminal bothers you (but you wish to keep the log messages), please read about the --terminal-verbosity option.

Best,
Andrew

Tested with rdiff-backup 1.1.12 on Mac OS X 10.5.1 using level 5 verbosity.

The following are examples of messages that are being sent to stderr which should be sent to stdout, as they are not error messages:
