2.6.3, 2.6.4 incompatibilities

[Nathan Bullock]

I am wondering if there are known incompatibilities
between 2.6.3 and 2.6.4?

I have a debian box with 2.6.4 and a FC3 box with
2.6.3. Most of the time rsync works fine between the
two but I am running this command on FC3 box:

rsync -azvv --stats --delete
--files-from=/root/.rsb2.tmp /
nathan at debian:/home/backup/bkp.01

And I am getting this error message:
building file list ...
[sender] expand file_list to 131072 bytes, did move
rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4092 bytes:
phase "send_file_entry" [sender]: Broken pipe (32)
delta-transmission enabled
Invalid file index: 268456790 (count=0) [receiver]
rsync error: protocol incompatibility (code 2) at
sender.c(156)
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (8513 bytes
received so far) [generator]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code
12) at io.c(420)
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (8 bytes
received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code
12) at io.c(359)

If I don't use the files-from option things seem to
work just fine. Also if I change nathan at debian to
nathan at fedora (so that it is just rsyncing locally) it
works fine.


Any Ideas?

Which box needs upgrading?
Or do they both need to be upgraded to 2.6.5?

PS. I just want to say thanks to all those who gave
answers to my last post ("Two Questions"). They were
very helpful.
