An interesting note. There appears to be a difference in the way rsync passes information between the version on 10.3 and the later versions. On 10.3 when you try and use the rsync:// protocol with a filename after the module, the server responds with the following error no matter how you quote or escape the ':' after X11:
11:24 ripper~/linux/ati/compiz> rsync -avz rsync://rsync.opensuse.org/buildservice-repos-main/X11\:/XGL/openSUSE_10.3/i586 . rsync: getaddrinfo: rsync.opensuse.org/buildservice-repos-main/X11 873: Name or service not known rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(105) [receiver=2.6.9]
Now, on 10.3, you can use the rsync:// protocol to query the host/module, but no matter what you do, you can't get around the : in the path. Not with
I don't know. Works for me on 10.3 and everywhere else, but I maintain and use my own rsync builds that don't have the fistfull of suse patches. http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/aljex/ So it's _possible_ this really is some bug in the stock rsync build on 10.3, or possibly in 2.6.9 -- Brian K.
