Description Enrico Scholz 2005-11-29 13:59:46 UTC

Description of problem:

'rsync -H' segfaults when hardlinks of the source are not covered completely by

How reproducible:

100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. mkdir A B
2. touch A/a
3. ln A/a A/b
4. rsync -H A/a B/
  

Actual results:

Comment 1 Enrico Scholz 2005-11-29 14:04:19 UTC

accordingly http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/OLDNEWS, this seems to be fixed in
2.6.5+

Comment 2 Christian Iseli 2007-01-22 11:32:11 UTC

This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd.

Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and
either update the target product or close it ?

Thanks.
