Unknown Dropbox flags

When I specify --dropbox-batch-mode or --dropbox-batch-size, I get
Error: unknown flag: --dropbox-batch-size
(for example).

I am using a Dropbox destination with the crypt and chunker layers.

rclone v1.50.2

  • os/arch: linux/amd64
  • go version: go1.13.8

These are the ones from the Linux Mint/Ubuntu repositories. I've had some bad luck running the more recent versions.

/usr/bin/rclone sync 
--delete-during --verbose --transfers 32 --checkers 10 --contimeout 60s --timeout 300s --retries 3 --low-level-retries 10 --log-file=rclonelog-upload-deputy --dropbox-batch-size=16 --stats 1s --stats-file-name-length 0 --fast-list --links --stats=5m /media/dan/4TB

I don't understand why I should be getting this. I've read the documentation multiple times, and there doesn't seem to be any times when this would not be appropriate on a Dropbox remote.

Thanks.

hi,

--dropbox-batch-mode was added at https://rclone.org/changelog/#v1-56-0-2021-07-20
