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.
