           Summary: Need to define NO_SYMLINK_XATTR on Linux
           Product: rsync
           Version: 3.1.0
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P3
         Component: core
        AssignedTo: way...@samba.org
        ReportedBy: m...@mattmccutchen.net
         QAContact: rsync...@samba.org


NO_SYMLINK_XATTRS needs to be defined on Linux.  See:

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/attr.git/tree/man/man5/attr.5?id=1cc88bd4c17ef99ace22c8be362d513f155b1387#n116

It would be nice to have a portable configure test rather than hard-coding the
value for each OS.  Unfortunately, the test may need to use the abstraction
layer in lib/sysxattrs.c, which would not be available at configure time
without special tricks.
