What's the bug number? I'll look into this personally. If you're right, I don't know how this could have gotten through our testing! I've even been using the version that went out today on some of my own machines for awhile now without encountering this error...

I note that rsync as patched by Apple will segfault every time if you run as root and try to rsync the top level of an HFS+ volume, if you try to use the -E extended attribute switch.

It seems they tried to fix this bug in the new security update. Unfortunately, they introduced another one: Now the --delete flag doesn't work any more.


Does anyone have a workaround for this? It is a show-stopper for any backup or sync script that uses rsync.

The error:

% ls -la a b

BTW, I have already filed a bug with Apple.
