Debian sid
Backuppc V. 3.3.0-2
=====================

Hi list,

BackupPC svr: Debian sid
address 3 other machines than the server; 
  1 is Debian oldstable (squeeze), OK, 
  2 are Debian sid, but one is failing.

The message is: backup failed (fileListReceive failed)

All machines have exactly the same locale setup (a mix between
fr_FR.UTF-8 and C).

The problem is, everything's alright, 
key's fingerprint has been accepted
/usr/bin/ssh -l root machine.domain ls
is working well,
but I've got garbage into $TOPDIR/pc/machine.domain/XferLOG.z
and therefor into XferLOG.bad.z instead of regular text, such as:

/usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_zcat XferLOG.bad.z

fileListReceive() failed
Done: 0 files, 0 bytes
Got fatal error during xfer (fileListReceive failed)
Backup aborted by user signal
Not saving this as a partial backup since it has fewer files than the
prior one (got 0 and 0 files versus 0)


As I also use some other Perl programs, I suspect svr & good machine
have more recent Perl module(s) (I used CPAN on them), but I don't know
which ones are to be upgraded - Well, this is a first guess, as the older
machine can be backed up without problem.
