Package: rsync
Version: 3.2.3-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I was trying to rsync my server to my desktop as a backup today, running
testing on my desktop and stable on the server. First my script failed
due to --noatime being renamed to --open-noatime, easily fixed. Then it
failed because the server doesn't know about --open-noatime:

  rsync: on remote machine: --open-noatime: unknown option

Easiest "fix" for now seems to be accepting "--noatime" on newer
versions and deprecate it when "--open-noatime" is more widely spread.

Installing rsync from buster-backports on my servers helped as a
workaround for now.

Best regards, thank your for your work and have a happy new year (if
your calendar overflows this night)
