Austin,

I've been able to run rdiff-backup just fine with something like:

$ rdiff-backup address@hidden::/path/to/src address@hidden::/backup

just fine using the regular setup.

Unfortunately, KeyError's are some of the hardest bugs to track down
since they depend on being able to recreate the conditions 'just so'.

You say that you "recently changed my configuration" -- can you please
provide as many details as possible about the change?

Also, try running with a higher verbosity, such as 8.

I'd like to help you resolve this problem, but I need more information
in order to debug.

Thanks,
Andrew

PS -- I know it's a long shot, but double-check that you don't have any
old rdiff-backup installations lying around, such as in the
lib/site-package dirs for old versions of python. Also try re-installing
rdiff-backup (or simply deleting the *.pyc files in the rdiff_backup dir).
