I can only guess here since you don't supply any details of your run,
but this is usually caused by someone using a wildcard (for example,
"rsync -av --del /src/* host:/dest"), which does not send the src
directory, and therefore no deletions can occur inside it.  Just drop
the wildcard (leaving the trailing slash) if that is the case.

That's right.  The --remove-* options affect the sending side, and the
--delete-* options the receiving side.
