[Bug 2002918] Re: ERROR: rejecting excluded file-list name

[Mickaël LAMBERT]

Hello Everyone !

I hope you're doing fine !

I have a seemly identical bug on Ubuntu 22.04.(1/2?) using
rsync_3.2.7-0ubuntu0.22.04.2_amd64.deb.

Doing :

rsync --verbose --recursive --times --links --safe-links --hard-links --stats \
--files-from=/tmp/file_list rsync://rsync.ourserver.internal.bla/somepath /tmp/.

file_list contains alike :
../.the_directory/the_file
../.the_directory/another_file

I got :
ERROR: rejecting unrequested file-list name: .the_directory
rsync error: requested action not supported (code 4) at flist.c(1000) [Receiver=3.2.7]

Work correctly using rsync_3.2.3-8ubuntu3.1_amd64.deb.

Does this fix makes it to the Ubuntu 22.04.x repos?

Thanks in advance,
Have a nice day !
