Comment 13 for bug 1327550

Andreas, if you are still have this setup, could you please do me a favour? I am wanting to clean up this code, but do not want to break this again, and I have been unable to replicate this error on my machine.

If you can help, could you please:
1) Find the relevant block in duplicity/path.py:

        if self.type in ("chr", "blk"):
            try:
                self.devnums = (os.major(self.stat.st_rdev),
                                os.minor(self.stat.st_rdev))
            except:
                log.Warn(_("Warning: %s invalid devnums (0x%X), treating as (0, 0).")
                         % (util.ufn(self.get_relative_path()), self.stat.st_rdev))
                self.devnums = (0, 0)

2) Replace it with the old version that used to be broken and see if you get the OverflowError:

        if self.type in ("chr", "blk"):
            self.devnums = (os.major(self.stat.st_rdev),
                            os.minor(self.stat.st_rdev))

3) If you do still get the error, try this slightly modified version and see if it fixes the error:

        if self.type in ("chr", "blk"):
            try:
                self.devnums = (os.major(self.stat.st_rdev),
                                os.minor(self.stat.st_rdev))
            except OverflowError:
                log.Warn(_("Warning: %s invalid devnums (0x%X), treating as (0, 0).")
                         % (util.ufn(self.get_relative_path()), self.stat.st_rdev))
                self.devnums = (0, 0)
