According to duplicity's changelog:

New in v0.4.4.RC4 (2007/10/26)
------------------------------
WARNING:  COMMAND LINE CHANGES ARE NOT BACKWARDS COMPATIBLE!
There is a new command line syntax to separate actions and
options.  Refer to the new man page for full details of the
change.  The new syntax looks like:
    duplicity [full|incr] [options] source_dir target_url
    duplicity [restore] [options] source_url target_dir
    duplicity verify [options] source_url target_dir
    duplicity collection-status [options] target_url
    duplicity list-current-files [options] target_url
    duplicity cleanup [options] target_url
    duplicity remove-older-than time [options] target_url

So I think it needs to run duplicity once with just the new
remove-older-than subcommand, after (or before?) the main backup.

I hacked backupninja to not pass the --remove-older-than switch, and it
seems to be successfully backing up again.
