As a workaround for the tar method not detecting deletions on localhost
backups, would it be possible to write a script that is run after each
incremental to perform a file listing on the source directory and compare that
to the list of backed up files and delete those in the backup that are no
longer in the source directory. I realize this is a workaround and would only
be appropriate for localhost backups but it wouldn't be a bad solution since
incrementals are quick, run when no one is using the system and it would make
the full backups much faster than rsyncd.
