as far as i can tell these 10+ year old bugs are closable,
because they're either no longer relevant (pretty different OS environment),
or never received the requested moreinfo followup,
or were not directly related to duplicity itself (ie. applied
to various dependencies),
or were fixed at some point in the past 10+ years without me noting.
regards
