Package: rsync
Version: 2.6.4-5
Severity: critical

I am filing this bug as critical for 2 reasons: 1) the package in
question breaks the systemimager-server package and 2) it causes
data loss (in my case, a nightly backup scheduled by cron failed to
complete).

The new rsync package causes the systemimager 'getimage' command to
fail with this error:

rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [receiver]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(420)
          the recommended version of rsync.
Failed to retrieve /etc/systemimager/mounted_filesystems from 127.0.0.1.
getimage: Have you run "prepareclient" on 127.0.0.1?
          If you see the message "unrecognised option" above, check
          http://systemimager.org/download/ to be sure that you are running

Reverting to 2.6.4-2 causes normal behavior to resume.
