Strange. That makes sense, but I don't that your point addresses my bug. The problem isn't that it can't ask for a PASSPHRASE... remember, it *ISN'T* asking for one when I run this buy hand. I don't have PASSPHRASE set as an environment variable or anything, it simply doesn't need one to create an incremental archive.

I think instead my bug is that PASSPHRASE doesn't exist, and getpass.py tries to at least be able to read from an interactive prompt... not that it needs to or does, but that it doesn't like the non-interactive prompt.

I'll experiment with 'export PASSPHRASE=""' in my script and see if that changes its behavior.
