Bug ID: 14683
Summary: failed to set permissions on symlinks; need
`--omit-link-permissions` option
Product: rsync
Version: 3.2.0
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P5
Component: core
Assignee: wa...@opencoder.net
Reporter: m...@shadsterling.com
QA Contact: rsync...@samba.org
Target Milestone: ---
After updating to 3.2.3 (along with updating other packages) I'm getting errors
of the form `rsync: [generator] failed to set permissions on "/blah/blah/blah":
Operation not supported (95)` on symlinks.
I assume the underlying OpenSuse system doesn't support setting permissions on
symlinks, but I do want to sync permissions on everything but symlinks without
getting these errors.
I think fixing this would require an option like `--omit-link-permissions`
similar to the existing option `--omit-link-times`
