Kubuntu Breezy 5.10, kernel 2.6.12-10

Running bbstored as "User homann".

Anything else?

Yes, I found that description too. Not extremely helpful, more than the 
file it first errored out on was 80 MB.

I also tried restoring the file with bbackupquery, and got the suprising 
result that it had the same size and attributes, but different md5sum:s. 
As it was a tar file, I tried 'tar tvf', and that also reported a crc error.
