Comment 20 for bug 1309710

I'm still running into problems with rsnapshot (1.3.1-4ubuntu0.1):

I have

    ssh_args -p 22 -i /path/to/my/.ssh/id_rsa_rsnapshot

Then a backup entry like this

    backup <email address hidden>:/etc/ srv1/ exclude_file=/path/to/rsnapshot_prv.exclude,+rsync_short_args=-z

leads to the error

   rsync: -a -z: unknown option
   rsync error: syntax or usage error (code 1) at main.c(1572) [client=3.1.0]
   ERROR: /usr/bin/rsync returned 1 while processing <email address hidden>:/etc/

The executed rsync command was

   /usr/bin/rsync -a -z --delete --numeric-ids --relative --delete-excluded --exclude-from=/path/to/rsnapshot_prv.exclude --rsh=/usr/bin/ssh -p 22 -i /path/to/my/.ssh/id_rsa_rsnapshot <email address hidden>:/etc /backup/rsnapshot/.sync/srv1/

Without the "+rsync_short_args=-z", everything works fine.
