2020-10-29 Thread Alkis Georgopoulos
Public bug reported: Rsync in Ubuntu 20.10 fails when /proc isn't mounted, while it worked before. This happens because AC_CHECK_FUNC(lchmod) returns "yes" in 20.10, while it returned "no" before. Steps to reproduce: # Emulate /proc not being mounted $ mount --bind / /mnt $ chroot /mnt rsync -a
