ADB line not captured ?

Getting this error:

adb shell, adb logcat etc work fine. Previously used original adb-sync which stopped working with a "connection reset by peer" so tried your variant. Don't know when exactly it stopped working but possibly after a supposedly minor Android update.

TIA

Ah that's probably a missing regex / unhandled case by adbsync. I left a comment here for myself to possibly handle that

What would be the reason for this permission error, any hint for a workaround? Everything else adb related still seems to work.

I'm running into the same error.

Adding this here

        elif self.RE_LS_PERMISSION_DENIED.fullmatch(line):
            raise PermissionError

and this here

    RE_LS_PERMISSION_DENIED = re.compile("ls: .*: Permission denied$")

Captured the error successfully. However, i don't know how to handle it properly.

On Ubuntu 23.10 with Python 3.11.6 installed through apt and adb-sync installed through pipx, I am getting this same error but with a slightly less friendly error presentation

I find I get this error when I ask for "too general" a directory, for example, pulling /sdcard/Android/data fails with this error but I can pull sub-directories within /sdcard/Android/data fine
