[rdiff-backup-users] Rdiff backup still chokes if read-only files are found at target

[D. Kriesel]

Hi guys,

I have rdiff crashing when read-only files are in the rdiff repository. It
gives the following Exceptions:

Exception '[Error 5] Zugriff verweigert: 'D:\\/rd/data/home/kwasny/Eigene
Dateie
n/Eigene Bilder'' raised of class '<type 'exceptions.WindowsError'>':
  File "rdiff_backup\Main.pyc", line 306, in error_check_Main

Sounds similar to me like the old read-only file issue.

Any advice?
