how does it break them ? Oops, forgot the error message: Started update at Mon May 1 07:07:52 MST 2006 rsync: on remote machine: --no-specials: unknown option rsync error: requested action not supported (code 4) at clientserver.c(520) rsync: read error: Connection reset by peer (104) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(614) [receiver=2.6.8] After removing the --deep flag, all has been working fine.

From the changelog of rsync 2.6.8: - Fixed a bug in the --link-dest code that prevented special files (such as fifos) from being linked. This breaks the --device flag (used by gentoo-rsync) since behavio(u)r has changed from 2.6.7. Removing the "--device" flag seems to work however I have not tested enough to see if there are any negative side effects. If no special files are synced in portage, removing the "--device" flag from /etc/rsync/gentoo-mirror.conf may prove a sufficient workaround until all rsync servers are at 2.6.8 and gentoo-rsync can depend on rsync >=2.6.8.
