Package: rsync
Version: 3.2.3-7
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
After upgrading to Debian 11 (bullseye), I started seeing a problem
when running the following backup command
rsync -abvz --partial -e ssh /var/spool/mail/faheem
faheem@servername:Mail/faheem
With this command `rsync` returns
sending incremental file list
faheem
deflate on token returned 0 (8864 bytes left)
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at token.c(476)
[sender=3.2.3]
The file `/var/spool/mail/faheem` is approximately 3GB.
ls -lah /var/spool/mail/faheem
-rw-rw---- 1 faheem mail 3.1G Sep 21 02:15 /var/spool/mail/faheem
I can confirm that the file is not correctly updated.
I didn't see this issue with the `rsync` version in the previous
release, Debian 10 (buster), namely `3.1.3-6`. I also don't see this
issue with smaller files. Any pointers or suggestions for debugging
appreciated.
Regards, Faheem Mitha
