Aiii, I forgot the "-B" and therefore didn't notice that I need libpopt-dev and libacl1-dev. Just redid it now and it worked! > You can try http://paul.gps.nl/rsync_2.6.9-0.sarge.2_i386.deb Hm, that leaves me with a new problem: dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of rsync: rsync depends on lsb-base (>= 3.0); however: Version of lsb-base on system is 2.0-7. So I guess that means that I have to install lsb from backports.org, but that requires that I also upgrade these: alien gcc-3.4-base libaudio2 libmng1 libqt3c102-mt libqt4-core libqt4-gui libqt4-qt3support libqt4-sql librpm4 libstdc++6 lprng lsb-release pax qt4-qtconfig rpm Uffda, that's a lot of requirements for just a simple fix. :-( But since I really need the fix, I installed it on just 1 of my servers and the backup server. And here is more bad news: the patches didn't solve the problem. :-(( Proof: ================================================================ server1:~#touch /var/www/some/subdir/testfile server1:~#/usr/bin/rsync -v --archive --relative --delete --delete-excluded --compress --protocol=28 --exclude-from=/var/local/dom/def/backup.exclude /var/www/ backupserver::server1_backup/ building file list ... done var/www/some/subdir/ /var/www/some/subdir/testfile server1:~#rm /var/www/some/subdir/testfile server1:~#/usr/bin/rsync -v --archive --relative --delete --delete-excluded --compress --protocol=28 --exclude-from=/var/local/dom/def/backup.exclude /var/www/ backupserver::server1_backup/ building file list ... done var/www/some/subdir/ ================================================================ As you can see it doesn't delete the testfile which resides in some subdirectory. :-( Thanks, Andy. -- I said "no" to drugs, but they just wouldn't listen! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
