Package: rsync
Version: 3.0.7-2
Severity: normal

I use storebackup to create daily backups and I mirror these backups
to a report machine using:

  rsync --stats -a -z -H --numeric-ids --link-dest=/backup \
        /backup/ bruckner.vpn.huenfield.org:/home/backup/

During today's run, rsync reported the following errors:

ERROR     2011.04.10 11:14:45 27930 rsync: link 
"/home/backup/forster/2011.04.10_06.36.53/neal/src/temp/linux-2.6-2.6.32/debian/build/build_i386_none_486/include/config/dvb/s5h1409.h"

Assertion `(((unsigned char *)(node->data))[0]) == 0' failed.

Looking at .gksu.lock, we see that it indeed has the maximum number of
allowed hard links (it also has 0 size):

$ ls -l /home/backup/forster/2011.03.10_11.11.28/.gksu.lock
-rw-r--r-- 65000 neal neal 0 Sep 28  2007 
/home/backup/forster/2011.03.10_11.11.28/.gksu.lock

I'd like rsync to not fail.  Perhaps it should create an additional
copy of the content.

Thanks.
