Re: [rdiff-backup-users] MacOS X problems

[Scott Bender]

Yep, you're correct. I modified Hardlink.link_rp() to be:

def link_rp(diff_rorp, dest_rpath, dest_root = None):
    """Make dest_rpath into a link using link flag in diff_rorp"""
    if not dest_root: dest_root = dest_rpath # use base of dest_rpath
    dest_link_rpath = rpath.RPath(dest_root.conn, dest_root.base,
                                  diff_rorp.get_link_flag())
    dest_rpath.hardlink(FilenameMapping.quote(dest_link_rpath.path))


All is fine now.

thanks!
