Public bug reported: Hello, I think rsync works bad with encfs now.
When root uses it, rsync cannot read a directory encrypted with encfs by a user. More precisely, it cannot read the mounted directory, the virtual one where the user can read the datas. Until now there was only a warning like this "rsync: readlink_stat("/home/claude/Documents_chiffres") failed: Permission denied (13)" and the software went on working (only ignoring the content of the mounted directory and of course without saving this content) But recently there is this more: "IO error encountered -- skipping file deletion" and because of this "skipping file deletion", the software can't work normally. The destination gets bigger more and more because the deleted files in the source are not deleted in the destination. Thanks for reading me. rsync 3.1.3-8ubuntu0.1 Description: Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS Release: 20.04 ** Affects: rsync (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1955347 Title: rsync works bad with encfs now To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rsync/+bug/1955347/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
