Thanks for your reply,
what I'm wondering about is, that everything works fine if I delete the
dir /usr/share/terminfo in the linkdest before running rsync so that has
to be copied as is by rsync.
No other directory is affected, though. I also don't understand the
behaviour of rsync: First it complains that there is no such file or
directory just to say that it exists in the second step.
So, what could go wrong with /usr/share/terminfo and what do you
suggest? Currently I'm only backing up /home and my "mp3-partition" to
the NAS as this works without any problem and I'm backing up / to an
external hdd via usb.
Thanks
Thomas

This indicates that your filesystem is not behaving correctly, since it
is returning conflicting results to rsync. One of your pastebin errors
from an earlier email also listed an NFS error with a mount going stale,
which is something that you'd need to fix outside of rsync.
File index not found: 7235938 (-1 - 185115)
rsync error: protocol incompatibility (code 2) at hlink.c(488)
[generator=3.0.3]
That looks like some kind of text message getting in the way of the
protocol, since the number turns into the string "bin".
