Package : rsync
Debian Bug : 1093052 1093089
The update for rsync announced in DSA 5843-1 introduced a regression
when using the -H option to preserve hard links. Updated packages are
now available to correct this issue.
For the stable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed in
version 3.2.7-1+deb12u2.
We recommend that you upgrade your rsync packages.
