Package: rsync
Version: 2.6.4-2
Severity: important

I'm using rsync with --files-from=-, where the standard input may
contain directories. With previous versions, these directories
were ignored, but now all the files in these directories are also
tranferred.

In particular, this is a security problem, as these additional files
may contain private data, that shouldn't have been transmitted.
