When running an incremental backup on my Linux system, BackupPC
repeatedly hangs when backing up the mythconverg mysql database for
mythtv.

Note that the database seems to be perfectly intact and I don't have
any problem 'rsyncing' it manually.

The specific error messages I get are:

Can't get rsync digests from

Can't call method "isCached" on an undefined value at
/usr/share/BackupPC/lib/BackupPC/Xfer/RsyncFileIO.pm line 165.

It then just proceeds to hang for HOURS...

The most disturbing thing to me is that BackupPC seems to be so
fragile in that if it encounters a problem, it seems to just hang
there (seemingly) forever without sending any error messages and
without even doing something like skipping the troublesome areas and
moving on.

Thanks
