You really want to see it?? OK:

     rdiff-backup \
         --api-version 201 \
         --no-ssh-compression --null-separator \
         backup \
         --exclude-sockets \
         --exclude-globbing-filelist <(tr '\n' '\0' <"~/rback/exclude-F36" || echo -n 'Abort!') \
         --exclude-globbing-filelist <(tr '\n' '\0' <"~rback/histfiles-F36") \
         --exclude-globbing-filelist "~/rback/exclude-F36-auto" \
         --preserve-numerical-ids \
         --print-statistics \
         / "$Server::/media/sysbk/lenovo-F36

There's nothing in there that should affect /usr/share/zoneinfo.
