I encountered the same issue today, when my backup script attempted to
rsync -aHAXx --stats --numeric-ids --inplace --delete '/'
'/media/backup/repository/sda5'
which produced
rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4092 bytes [sender]: Broken
pipe (32)
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (4387 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(635)
[sender=3.0.3]
during file list transfer. Interestingly, --dry-run was not affected;
and shouldn't it run just the same file list transfer? Setting '-v' did
not affect the behavior but clearly showed that the error occurs during
file-list transfer.
Anyhow, I retrieved the current testing sources, compiled them on Lenny
amd64 and installed the package. Afterwards my backup script ran
perfectly, and it has a lot of rsync commands like the above.
So it seems like the current testing closes the issue.
Thanks,
