I still have problems running the options
like /usr/local/bin/rsync --daemon
will give me an error
Thanks in advance.

Did you do "make install" or put rsync in your $PATH?

Obviously rsync is not meant to dump when you pass --help.  You'll
need to run it under some kind of debugger to find out where we're
going wrong.  I suspect some kind of problem with your compiler
or system libraries, perhaps in popt.

If you have gdb, then this would help

  gdb ./rsync
  run --help
  (probably crashes here)
  where
  info locals
