[Bug 2009575] [NEW] Upgrade to 3.1.3-8ubuntu0.5 causing sync errors

[Barry Price]

Public bug reported:

Hi

Several systems upgraded their rsync package from 3.1.3-8ubuntu0.4 to
3.1.3-8ubuntu0.5 overnight.

Automated syncs are now failing with:

receiving file list ... 
ERROR: rejecting unrequested file-list name: [redacted]
rsync error: protocol incompatibility (code 2) at flist.c(916) [Receiver=3.1.3]

Reverting to the previous release solves the problem.

This has been seen on multiple servers running 20.04 on amd64, I'll
update this bug with details if we find it on other series too.

** Affects: rsync (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Confirmed
