Package: deja-dup
Version: 14.2-1
Severity: normal
I have deja-dup set to back up daily to a smb:// path. (I would prefer to
use an rsync:// path - the native rsync protocol, that is, *not* rsync over
ssh - but it doesn't seem to support that. But that's not the bug.)
The automatic backup never happens; I always get a notification box saying
the backup has been delayed and will start when a network connection is
available. (The computer and the backup server are both connected to the
same Ethernet hub, so a network connection should always be available.)
If I manually mount the appropriate SMB share from Nautilus and then run
deja-dup manually, it gives more or less the same error message. I see
these messages in the terminal:
** (deja-dup:2475): DEBUG: DuplicityInstance.vala:199: Running the following
duplicity (2478) command: duplicity collection-status

`G_VALUE_HOLDS_UINT (value)' failed
** (deja-dup:2475): DEBUG: Duplicity.vala:165: No connection found. Postponing
the backup.
At this point I can use 'ps' to see something like this:
2475 pts/0 Sl+ 0:01 deja-dup
2478 pts/0 TN+ 0:00 ionice -c2 -n7 duplicity collection-status --exclude=
If I then kill -CONT the duplicity process, the backup begins, and completes
successfully. It seems that the only problem is that it's not detecting the
network correctly. It might be relevant that I do not have HAL installed,
but I don't see HAL in the dependencies list.

I'm sorry, I didn't see this message till just yesterday (it wasn't
sent to -submitter). Indeed I do not have NetworkManager running.
The problem *did* persist with versions after 15.92 up to and
including 18.1.1-2.1, but has gone away with my local rebuild of
18.1.1-2.1 against libnautilus-extension0a. As such, I see no reason
to keep the bug open; I'll file a new one if it comes back.
