--- Comment #4 from Wayne Davison <wa...@opencoder.net> --- The pre-release patches aren't guaranteed to be backward compatible, and in this case the bits that were used in a couple different patches actually conflicted with each other. So, when --atimes was promoted it became impossible for anything using the older --fileflags patch to work with a newer rsync (or the older --crtimes option, which also had to change bits). Your best bet is to either copy an extra rsync binary onto the non-upgraded target system (it doesn't have to be installed) and use the --rsync-path option to tell rsync where to run the newer version OR to copy an older rsync version onto the upgraded system so that you can use that rsync-old-fileflags binary to copy to a system with the older patch. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
