Hi,
just saw the e-Mail in passing. I'll try to take a closer look tonight.

That looks familiar. Wait - "delete d"? Are there also files that are deleted,
or only directories?

So, apparently the error is passed on to the parent. At least that much
works :). Is the backup marked as successful?

As I said, I can't look closer right now. What I would have expected to happen
is that the backup is marked as unsuccessful and discarded (or kept as a
partial if it's a full). I didn't think much further than that. Deleting files
past the point of failure doesn't make any difference for a backup that will
be discarded, but it's a bad idea for a partial, so I might have to think of
something better. Was your backup actually a full?
One possibly unrelated thing I notice is that the files quoted above are
marked "pool", not "same". Is that what you expect (moved or copied photos),
or is it the result of a previous partial which failed in a similar way (but
then there should be nothing left to delete, should there)?
Regards,
Holger
