The latest rsync will now look into link-dest dirs even for files that exist in
the destination directory hierarchy. It still requires all preserved
attributes to match
In general - --link-dest works as expected *only*, if the destination
directory
is empty.
Going along with this idea of ensuring the destination directory is empty.
LBackup is a rsync backup wrapper system which may be of assistance in this
regard.

I'd like to use rsync as an efficient (== do not store the same file twice at
the backup media) backup solution. The backup should be made into N remote
directories (rotating each day) _without_ the need to delete the remote
directory before.
This is essentially, what LBackup is doing.

Check out PCBackup -- it can use rsync (either via ssh or a daemon) and
stores files without duplicates.

The simple fact is that two links to the same inode are not 2 different files
but the same file. Their attributes by definition are the same. They cannot

No, the problem is a complete different IMHO:
If the touch command is skipped, then rsync does hard-link the file instead
to copy it over !
In general -

Oops, I read what I thought you were saying instead of what you were. That
behavior is documented in the man page:
This option works best when copying into an empty

well - now the Oops is on my side ;-) - really overlooked that part of the man
page.
Is there any chance to convince rsync to always look into --link-dest ?
