I get the same problem between to boxes running 14.04.2. As explained in the Debian bug, you can remove the "-z" flag and add the "-C" flag to ssh in order to move compression from rsync to ssh. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to rsync in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1431709 Title: rsync dies with "inflate returned -3" Status in rsync package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: On 12.04.5 64bit server running rsync pulling backups from a 14.04 64bit laptop dies with "inflate returned -3" when using the -z flag on a backup containing a large file (a VM image over 1G). Removing the -z flag works around the issue.
