Sorry for the late reply. I agree with your suggestions. I have attached
a new debdiff.

Status in “rsync” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed

Bug description:
Binary package hint: rsync

When using --delete-delay option I get below error. The error message is mentioning --delete-during option and not --delete-delay option. It should of course mention --delete-delay, if this issue also applies to --delete-delay. 

jonas at miraculix:~/develop/scripts$ sudo ./backupMiraculix 
sending incremental file list
rsync: readlink_stat("/home/jonas/.gvfs") failed: Permission denied (13)
FATAL I/O ERROR: dying to avoid a --delete-during issue with a pre-3.0.7 receiver.
rsync error: requested action not supported (code 4) at flist.c(1795) [sender=3.0.7]

The command I am using is: 
/usr/bin/rsync -azv --numeric-ids --stats --bwlimit=700 --partial --exclude=/home/jonas/noBackup --delete-delay /home -e /usr/bin/ssh root at majestix:/storage/backup/miraculix
