Public bug reported:

rsync with remote sudo fails over ssh on Ubuntu Mate 18.04.2

rsync version 3.1.2 protocol version 31 - same on local and remote

OpenSSH_7.6p1 Ubuntu-4ubuntu0.3, OpenSSL 1.0.2n 7 Dec 2017 - same on
local and remote

I have checked for spurious output from .bashrc using

$ ssh user@host /bin/true > out.dat

which results in

$ ls -l *.dat
-rw-rw-r-- 1 user user 0 May 22 23:33 out.dat

-- The [redacted] command is

rsync -AEavvvogt --rsync-path="sudo rsync" --debug=CONNECT -e "ssh -i
/home/xxx/.ssh/id_rsa -tt -v -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o
UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null" --exclude-from=/home/xxx/backup.exclude
--delete --link-dest=../$lastdt /etc $dest/$dt

-- The [redacted] output is

protocol version mismatch -- is your shell clean?

(see the rsync man page for an explanation)

rsync error: protocol incompatibility (code 2) at compat.c(178)
[sender=3.1.2]

[sender] _exit_cleanup(code=2, file=compat.c, line=178): about to call
exit(2)

-------------------------------------------------------

/etc/sudoers contains

user ALL= NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/rsync
...which I have tried placing above (as is the default) and below lines 
beginning %admin and %sudo and the space in "ALL= NOPASSWD..." doesn't seem to 
make any difference

I followed the instructions at

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-copy-files-with-
rsync-over-ssh

https://askubuntu.com/questions/719439/using-rsync-with-sudo-on-the-
destination-machine

...which worked on 16.04, so I wonder if there may be a bug, although
grateful for any other suggestions, as I am unsure how to
debug/investigate further
