After upgrading to 0.13.4 on the server, the problem went away.

I don't see this problem on my system (Linux 2.4.x kernel, ext3). If upgrading both sides to the latest version doesn't help, then reopen bug with more information.

On my system, I have some files with owning uid/gid that doesn't correspond to any existing users or groups: The uids/gids cannot be looked up in NSS. This causes rdiff-backup to consider the file as changed every time I run a backup.

Here's an example:

# ls -l /home/peter/tmp/qvcd-0.21/admin/ChangeLog
-rw-r--r-- 1 632 598 22618 nov 7 2001 /home/peter/tmp/qvcd-0.21/admin/ChangeLog

This file will be considered changed on every run.

I'm running version 0.13.4 locally and 0.13.3 on the remote backup server.
