I'm not happy about the situation. But maybe I'm to conservative about
it.

There is no known security problem with BIT. So you shouldn't use the
security repo to update it.

Bug description:
  Backintime uses rsync to perform updates. Unfortunately there is an
  incompatibility between the currently released version of backintime
  and rsync >= 3.2.4 (see https://github.com/bit-
  team/backintime/issues/1247)

  Rsync has been updated from 3.2.3 to 3.2.7 on Feb 27. This broke
  backintime backups. The symptom is an error message like this:

  Command "rsync -a --delete --rsh=ssh -o ServerAliveInterval=240 -o
  LogLevel=Error -o IdentityFile=/home/aurelien/.ssh/backintime -p 22
  /tmp/tmpxilwcwk4/
  u...@example.com:"./backintime/switch/aurelien/1/20230308-230517-262""
  returns 3 | rsync: change_dir#3
  "/data/home/user//"./backintime/switch/aurelien/1" failed: No such
  file or directory (2)

  The workaround described in the GitHub issue works (passing `--old-
  args` to rsync), but maybe it would be better if the backintime
  package did this automatically?
