Log Message:
Update "rsync" package to version 2.6.2. Changes since version 2.6.0:
- Fixed a major bug in the sorting of the filenames when --relative
  is used for some sources (probably just "/", but don't depend on
  that).  This fix ensures that we ask for the right file-list item
  when requesting changes from the sender.
- Rsync now checks the return value of the close() function to
  better report disk-full problems on an NFS file system.
- Paths sent to an rsync daemon are more thoroughly sanitized when
  chroot is not used.  If you're running a non-read-only rsync
  daemon with chroot disabled, *please upgrade*, ESPECIALLY if the
  user privs you run rsync under is anything above "nobody".
- Lower memory use, more optimal transfer of data over the socket,
  and lower CPU usage (see the INTERNAL section for details).
- The RSYNC_PROXY environment variable can now contain a
  "USER:PASS@" prefix before the "HOST:PORT" information.
  (Bardur Arantsson)
- The --progress output now mentions how far along in the transfer
  we are, including both a count of files transferred and a
  percentage of the total file-count that we've processed.  It also
  shows better current-rate-of-transfer and remaining-transfer-time
  values.
- The configure script now accepts --with-rsyncd-conf=PATH to
  override the default value of the /etc/rsyncd.conf file.
- Added a couple extra diffs in the "patches" dir, removed the ones
  that got applied, and rebuilt the rest.
- Documentation changes now attempt to describe some often mis-
  understood features more clearly.
- When -x (--one-file-system) is combined with -L (--copy-links) or
  --copy-unsafe-links, no symlinked files are skipped, even if the
  referent file is on a different filesystem.
- The --link-dest code now works properly for a non-root user when
  (1) the UIDs of the source and destination differ and -o was
  specified, or (2) when the group of the source can't be used on
  the destination and -g was specified.
- Fixed a bug in the handling of -H (hard-links) that might cause
  the expanded PATH/NAME value of the current item to get
  overwritten (due to an expanded-name caching bug).
- We now reset the "new data has been sent" flag at the start of
  each file we send.  This makes sure that an interrupted transfer
  with the --partial option set doesn't keep a shorter temp file
  than the current basis file when no new data has been transfered
  over the wire for that file.
- Fixed a byte-order problem in --batch-mode on big-endian machines.
  (Jay Fenlason)
- Fixed configure bug when running "./configure --disable-ipv6".
- Fixed "make test" bug when build dir is not the source dir.
- When using --cvs-exclude, the exclude items we get from a
  per-directory's .cvsignore file once again only affect that one
  directory (not all following directories too).  The items are also
  now properly word-split and parsed without any +/- prefix parsing.
- When specifying the USER@HOST: prefix for a file, the USER part
  can now contain an '@', if needed (i.e. the last '@' is used to
  find the HOST, not the first).
- Fixed some bugs in the handling of group IDs for non-root users:
  (1) It properly handles a group that the sender didn't have a name
  for (it would previously skip changing the group on any files in
  that group).  (2) If --numeric-ids is used, rsync no longer
  attempts to set groups that the user doesn't have the permission
  to set.
- Fixed the "refuse options" setting in the rsyncd.conf file.
- Improved the -x (--one-file-system) flag's handling of any mount-
  point directories we encounter.  It is both more optimal (in that
  it no longer does a useless scan of the contents of the mount-
  point dirs) and also fixes a bug where a remapped mount of the
  original filesystem could get discovered in a subdir we should be
  ignoring.
- Rsync no longer discards a double-slash at the start of a filename
  when trying to open the file.  It also no longer constructs names
  that start with a double slash (unless the user supplied them).
- Path-specifying options to a daemon should now work the same with
  or without chroot turned on.  Previously, such a option (such as
  --link-dest) would get its absolute path munged into a relative
  one if chroot was not on, making that setting fairly useless.
  Rsync now transforms the path into one that is based on the
  module's base dir when chroot is not enabled.
- Fixed compilation problem on Tru64 Unix (having to do with
  sockaddr.sa_len and sockaddr.sin_len).
- Fixed a compatibility problem interacting with older rsync
  versions that might send us an empty --suffix value without
  telling us that --backup-dir was specified.
- The "hosts allow" option for a daemon-over-remote-shell process
  now has improved support for IPv6 addresses and a fix for systems
  that have a length field in their socket structs.
- Fixed the ability to request an empty backup --suffix when sending
  files to an rsync daemon.
