Package: replicator Version: 3.1-sarge-1.6 Severity: normal The script 'repli-update' wants to make sure that the directory structure within /var matches the master, however the rsync command is not robust against things such as the automounter that will mount stuff inside of /var which cannot be deleted.
The following patch (indented 4) seems to fix the problem.
