Some users only have the -security pocket enabled, and not -updates, so when a fix is required for a regression introduced by a security update, it needs to go to the -security pocket. It doesn't in any way mean BIT had a security issue.

Unfortunately there is an incompatibility between the currently released version of backintime and rsync >= 3.2.4 (see https://github.com/bit- team/backintime/issues/1247) Rsync has been updated from 3.2.3 to 3.2.7 on Feb 27. This broke backintime backups. The symptom is an error message like this: Command "rsync -a --delete --rsh=ssh -o ServerAliveInterval=240 -o LogLevel=Error -o IdentityFile=/home/aurelien/.ssh/backintime -p 22 /tmp/tmpxilwcwk4/ u...@example.com:"./backintime/switch/aurelien/1/20230308-230517-262"" returns 3 | rsync: change_dir#3 "/data/home/user//"./backintime/switch/aurelien/1" failed: No such file or directory (2) The workaround described in the GitHub issue works (passing `--old- args` to rsync), but maybe it would be better if the backintime package did this automatically?
