Package: rsync
Version: 2.6.5-1
Severity: minor

The man page says "a modern rsync uses ssh for its communications"
(while noting it may have been configure otherwise, but then goes on
to say (about remote shells) "One common substitute is to use ssh",
which makes it sound as if ssh is not the default.

Either I'm missing something, or the man page needs to be clarified.
Or perhaps both.  I *think* its using ssh since I've been transferring
between systems that don't allow rsh without problem.
