You can avoid this message by removing the rdiff-backup-data directory; however any data in it will be lost. Probably this error was caused because the first rdiff-backup session into a new directory failed. If this is the case it is safe to delete the rdiff-backup-data directory because there is no important information in it.

Running rdiff-backup like this could mess up what is currently in it. If you want to update or overwrite it, run rdiff-backup with the --force option.
