Hi Christian and thank you for answer.
As you said --ignore-errors could work, but il would be very very
dangerous.

I had tried  --exclude=PATTERN (more precisely
--filter "- /home/claude/Documents_chiffres/") and it seemed to work
better because there's not more the "IO error encountered -- skipping
file deletion" error.
rsync did not save the virtual directory corresponding to the encrypted
directory but that's no matter because the user's script does it.

It could be good BUT because of the --delete-excluded option,
rsync deletes the backup of the existing virtual directory
corresponding to the encrypted directory.
I've found a way modifying my backup's script : first it moves the
backup of the virtual directory to a safe place before rsync acts and
after it moves it back to the previous place.
It works but it could be better I think.
Best regards.
Claude MICOUIN
