Package: rsync
Version: 3.4.3+ds1-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
There is ongoing discussion about rsync 3.4.3 breaking incremental backups for
users. I am not sure if there is already a proper bug report or fixes in
upstream about this. Seems to be AI related, but I haven't investigated this
properly.

People are asking AI code to be removed:

I am creating this issue report that maintainer is aware of the situation.
