Public bug reported:
System: Xubuntu 12.04 Package: Duplicity 0.6.18-0ubuntu3.4 (From precise-updates; downgrading to 0.6.18-0ubuntu3, from precise-main, doesn't help) Description: I have set up Deja-dup to back up some local folders on my desktop computer to Ubuntu One, once per week. Currently, the backup fails with an error (see below). I have been seeing the error since 20th February 2014 - last successful backup was on 13th February 2014. Debug output (by running "DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1 deja-dup --backup" on the command line): (Lots of "import of duplicity.backends.* succeeded" messages here, omitted) DUPLICITY: DEBUG 1 DUPLICITY: .
