Package: duplicity Version: 0.6.08b-1+b1 Severity: normal For whatever reason, during a restoration attempt, sftp commands are failing, and the result is that duplicity gets stuck.
Nothing seems to happen, but duplicity doesn't terminate. Here's an output I got : # duplicity --ssh-askpass scp://r...@ahost.local//mnt/whatever/dupbackups/foo /home/user/bar Password for 'ahost.local': GnuPG passphrase: Local and Remote metadata are synchronized, no sync needed.
