Thank you for using nssbackup and reporting this issue. Please note that
nssbackup and sbackup were re-merged. You should consider to switch to
current sbackup 0.11 (https://launchpad.net/sbackup).

>backup not possible if uncompressed data exceeds available diskspace even if compressed data would fit
It is hard (impossible) to determine the compressed size before actually compressing the data. That said, it's impossible to check available free space based on the size of the compressed data. Therefore, I mark this as 'Won't fix'.

** Changed in: nssbackup
       Status: New => Won't Fix
