Indeed, this doesn't look like a bug in the package itself so marking
this as "Invalid". But that said, from your logs..

> rsync: readlink_stat("/home/toto/Directory_to_save/Crypt")
> failed: Permission denied (13)

This looks like you don't have the correct (write) permission to where
you're trying to do this. I suggest trying to look there and fix the
permission and re-try again?

Title:
  rsync works bad with encfs now

Status in rsync package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Hello,
  I think rsync works bad with encfs now.

  When root uses it, rsync cannot read a directory encrypted with encfs
  by a user. More precisely, it cannot read the mounted directory, the
  virtual one where the user can read the datas.

  Until now there was only a warning like this
  "rsync: readlink_stat("/home/claude/Documents_chiffres") failed:
  Permission denied (13)"
  and the software went on working (only ignoring the content of the mounted directory and of course without saving this content)

  But recently there is this more:
  "IO error encountered -- skipping file deletion"
  and because of this "skipping file deletion", the software can't work normally. The destination gets bigger more and more because the deleted files in the source are not deleted in the destination.

  Thanks for reading me.
