Tried this patch, but it failed to work:

cmd:
cd /Media && {
	sudo rsync --archive --hard-links --acls -xattrs --whole-file --drop-cache \
						--one-file-system --drop-cache --8-bit-output \
						--human-readable --progress --inplace --del . /backups/Media/.
}

first it deleted a bunch of stuff (~30 files)
deleting Library /
rsync: delete_file: unlink(MediaBack) failed: Operation not permitted (1)

Then a bunch more deletes...(~17)
Then:
