------- Comment #8 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-10-12 16:14 CST -------
I had the same problem with my backups, and rebuilding it on the same machine
didn't help. I suspect it's because support for lutimes is fs-specific, and I
have ext3 (which supports lutimes) on /home (where the build was done), and
reiserfs (which apparently does not support lutimes) on /volumes/backup (where
the backups are stored)
A rebuild with HAVE_LUTIMES forcibly undefined does not give the error.
I think a real solution would be for rsync to detect lutimes support per-fs at
runtime, before attempting to use it. I'd be happy if it never bothered to
try, or not unless given something like --have_lutimes. I'm not happy having
the default be to throw a bunch of errors about something I don't care about
that can't be done on that disk anyway.
