Sync not clearing duplicates

when doing sync destinations duplicates are not clearing.

2020/02/16 15:30:34 NOTICE: {redacted}.zip: Duplicate object found in destination - ignoring

I know i can clear duplicates using dedupe but isn't sync supposed to make exact clone?

What version of rclone are you using?
What's your config look like with passwords and keys removed?
What command are you running?
Can you share a debug log of the command?
Are you able to recreate it?

I take your point about sync being an exact copy, but currently the sync algorithm can't cope with duplicates so it gives this message instead.

So, I have no choice but run dedupe?

Yes, you need to run dedupe
