The link you provided (http://askubuntu.com/q/787244/25388) shows you
solved the dependency problem (it's indeed a matter of installing deja-
dup AND deja-dup-backend-gvfs), so I'm closing this bug. See also bugs
1606449 and 1641423 for more about this dependency issue.
The other problem you mention in that AskUbuntu question is related to
permissions on a NTFS volume mounted as root, if I understand correctly.
This is unrelated to the dependency issue and this bug report. Also,
Déjà Dup is supposed to be used by a normal user to back up their own
user data to a location that is writable by that user. There are better
tools for root to back up a complete disk or several users' data. This
is not the focus of Déjà Dup.
