Package: rsync Version: 3.1.1-3 Severity: minor After upgrading to jessie I get spammed by cron by an rsync job:
rsync -avPq --delete-after --bwlimit=5 /local/path server:remote/path The mails appear as empty, so I assumed there is a single newline or so. Putting a | grep . behind the rsync command works around the problem. According to the man page --quiet is specifically made for cron jobs. This doesn't work as advertized. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (800, 'stable'), (750, 'testing-updates'), (750, 'testing-proposed-updates'), (750, 'testing'), (300, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: amd64 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages rsync depends on: ii base-files 8 ii libacl1 2.2.52-2 ii libattr1 1:2.4.47-2 ii libc6 2.19-18 ii libpopt0 1.16-10 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian13+nmu1 rsync recommends no packages.
