We backup several FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE-p12 (GENERIC) #0: Tue Apr 29 22:02:25 UTC 2014 systems to a Debian system and have recently started receiving the following notice: "This rsync lacks old-style --compress due to its external zlib. Try -zz." I tried. it died. The messages are relatively new. Whatever changed did so within the last week or so. Our call to rsync starts out rsync -qvHaz --delete I had modified the command as follows: rsync -zz -qvHaz --delete this throws a syntax error and rsync -qvHazz --delete does nothing new probably because the first z flag satisfies the call for compression and the second one just wastes space. What is the best way to get compression working again? Thank you. Martin McCormick
