Yes, it's interesting what you mention. I've also thought that this is not specifically related to unison, so I'm trying to update the sid machine, in case magic happens and some relevant package is fixed. Unfortunately, I hadn't updated in a while, and solving a few dependencies is braking other packages, so I have to do that with care. In fact, last weekend update was complex, and it was difficult for me to find a clue by checking the logs.
