Indeed, diverted files are supposed to be different, otherwise it 
doesn't make sense to use diversions. To I think the error message is 
trying to say something else, but I don't know what it means exactly. I 
suspect it's saying that the file is already diverted and that we're 
trying to divert it a second time. Or something in that direction.
