Public bug reported:

I have found out that the "--restore-missing" functionality is not working as 
expected.
I have set up déja-dup to backup some folders every day.

If I delete some files today, and then I use the "restore-missing"
functionality the same day (today in my example), déja-dup shows me the
list of missing files as expected.

The problem is that if I use the "restore-missing" functionality from tomorrow 
on, no files are listed anymore. It seems that "restore-missing" seeks the 
missing files only if the backup is made the same day that I deleted the files.
The behavior I expected is that "restore-missing" should search the entire 
backup series, and create a list of all missing files since the first backup 
was made.
