I use Manjaro Xfce, which is a Arch based distro with self-compiled sbackup.
Works since two years without any problems.

Not it seems has a problem with the external drive (still the same) or a internal problem:

ERROR: Backup was unsuccessful. TAR ended prematurely due to errors.
/ bin / tar: The following options were used after any non-optional arguments in archive create or update mode. These options are positional and affect only arguments that follow them. Please, rearrange them properly.
