upstream has given up on this bug: "The 0.4 series is out of date by years. While I can't find anything in the docs that indicate it should not be restorable by the 0.6 series, I suspect enough changes have been made regarding error checks that older versions may be violating something that the new code requires. You can still download the old version from:
http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases-noredirect/duplicity/OLD/"; i think it's an ok decision as old versions of the software are available and in the debian archive, so i'm about to close this bug on our side as well. i will put a note into the relevant readmes regarding restores across versions. i'll also make sure to verify backups+restores across major versions before uploads to give us a good chance of catching future incompatibilities before the version gap becomes too large. regards az -- + Alexander Zangerl + DSA 42BD645D + (RSA 5B586291) Was ist der Unterschied zwischen einem Politiker und einem Telefonhörer?
