Package: rsync
Version: 3.0.7-2
Severity: important

Hi, 

you should really think to allow by default to make rsync to work ;)
I just tried rsync, to move from Ibm sync default app on Linux platform, and 
rsync isn't
so much reliable to backup a server (independently on the FS) :)

Here a quick example

cp -r Documents/contacs /tmp

~/Documents$ rsync  -av contacs/  /tmp/
sending incremental file list
./
rsync: failed to set times on "/tmp/.": Operation not permitted (1)

sent 463 bytes  received 16 bytes  958.00 bytes/sec
total size is 284326  speedup is 593.58
rsync error: some files/attrs were not transferred (see previous errors)
(code 23) at main.c(1060) [sender=3.0.7]

Please could you make rsync working, and more reliable while copying. 

I hope that it may contribute to improvements of rsync.
Best regards
Pat
