Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: sbackup

Simple Backup crashs silently if an io error occurs while doing backup
and restoration:

If an io error occurs an exception is raised and the creation of a backup fails silently. Same holds for the restore process.
An io error happens for instance if a directory contains a 'socket'. SBackup tries to store this 'file' but the access fails.

At least a message should appear to inform the user that an error
happened! The better way would be to catch such non 'files' before
storing them.

Version: 0.10.4 and 0.10.5 from repos

Ubuntu: 8.04
