Public bug reported: Recently my rsyncs all fail, both to RHEL 6 and to Ubuntu 14.04 as remote hosts.
$ rsync -z otherserveR:myfile ./ rsync: on remote machine: --new-compress: unknown option rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at main.c(1572) [server=3.1.0] rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [Receiver] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(226) [Receiver=3.1.1] I'm on the latest 15.04, and I think it started with 15.04, ie it seems to be a regression. (but I cannot find other recent reports).
