package: rsync
version: 2.6.4-6
severity: important

Hi,

IMHO the failure is similar to (the closed) #308733, that is I get an error 
"io timeout after 50 seconds -- exiting
rsync error: timeout in data send/receive (code 30) at io.c(181)"

I'm not sure if #308733 did occur when running rsync as a standalone server 
(as was indicated in the closing mail, which also linked to #308428 and 
#307923, which are about standalone rsync server, if I understood correctly.) 

I'm not running a rsync server, instead I'm running this script for my backup:

excl=" --exclude $foo --exclude $bar"
time rsync --timeout=50 -v -z -e ssh -av $excl --delete $HOME $targethost:

If I exclude my mail-directory from this (which is obviusly not what I 
want...) I don't get the error. If I only rsync the mail directory I still 
get the error.

Both systems are running sarge, so I first encoutered the error with rsync 
2.6.4-5 - after browsing the BTS I updated to 2.6.4-6 on both sides. (The 
system where the scripts runs is powerpc so I had to manually build 2.6.4-6 
there, because so far it hasnt been autobuild on ppc. On the other side I 
just installed the binary-deb from sid.)


regards,
        Holger
