Hi,

release 2.4.6 is victim of a annoying bug, that avoids it to complete a
backup if one file to backup is larger than 2GB.

If the backup succeeds, there is no problem, you will be able to
successfully test it (-t option) diff it (-d option) and restore any
file from it.

Waiting for release 2.4.7 that will contain a fix for this bug, you are
invited either to use release 2.4.5 (or stay using 2.3.12 if you have
not moved to 2.4.x yet) or, for those that use Sparc CPU based systems,
grab the fix in GIT [for details see
http://dar.linux.free.fr/doc/from_sources.html#GIT ]

Regards,
Denis.
