A request for enhancement was recently entered for finder locks:

But Wayne says he thinks they are handled by flags.diff too.

Thanks for mentioning those diffs. I'll try tomorrow and report here.

These are supposed to work with --archive, at least if rsync runs as
root. In any event, you probably don't care about these if you're just
backing up user data.

Yes, I was expecting this to work. I did run as root (using sudo) and also tried --device and --specials, but these are already included in --archive. Hm, I'll run it again tomorrow, maybe I've messed up somehow (it's 05:30 in the morning...).

Adding --fake-super to the options of rsync doesn't help:

Naturally, because that option makes rsync wrap the source metadata in
an rsync-specific extended attribute that it sets on the destination
file, whereas the checker tool is expecting the real destination
metadata to be set.

Yes, that absolutely makes sense. I shouldn't have included the output here. Obviously one would need a second "recover" step using rsync before checking with the tool.

Thanks for your fast help, I'm learning a lot!
