Commit 0bba152 changes the package removal list from hardcoded to based on the os_security_packages_list variable and at the same time adds rsync to the default list.

What is the rationale for removing the rsync package? Was this an oversight? It is not listed in the Readme packages section either...

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, that's not the desired behaviour.
Rsync should not be removed.

Do you want to create a PR for this?

rsync was erroneously added to `os_security_packages_list` variable,
meaning it was uninstalled as a "package with known issues".

Fixes dev-sec#141

Thank you for fixing this. It seems the issue is still here at list in the 4.1.0 release, and I've be bitten by this, which in the end silently uninstalled my whole Proxmox node, as Proxmox relies on rsync.

Do you know when a release including this change will be published?

Thank you very much for your work on this role anyway, it's great :)
