Package: rsync
Version: 3.2.7-1+deb12u5
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]

Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
after the updte to 3.2.7-1+deb12u5 rsync refuses to serve files which are 
symlinks
even if :
munge symlinks = no
use chroot = no
are correctly set.
Before this version the files was server correctly

The remote rsync command:
rsync -LtDqI rsync://this.server/Config/path_to_file local_file

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
If I create hard-links or use normal files the files arre transferred
   * What was the outcome of this action?
The sucurity fix included in 3.2.7-1+deb12u5 somehow disabled the effect of 
commands: munge symlinks = no & use chroot = no for same file-system, 
same-partition, same-volume symlinked files
   * What outcome did you expect instead?
the files should be transferred correctly as before, the symlink-dereferenced 
and the linked file server to remote client
