This bug is rather https://bugs.launchpad.net/duplicity/+bug/1386373 — right?
As it seems that there's a fix in Fedora somewhere[1]: is there any chance to get this upstream fix on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS as well? I mean, I would love to have a working backup solution again. ;) Also the error message seems to be caused by totally different problems!? 1. a read encoding issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/duplicity/+bug/1386373 (because the suggested fix seem to work for Eugene) 2. readonly mount https://bugs.launchpad.net/deja-dup/+bug/1769891#yui_3_10_3_1_1545160806792_1239 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/deja-dup/+bug/1741769 So I guess the error message in general is or was very misleading!? [1] Should the patch be visible on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1470873 ? I can't see it!? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to deja-dup in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1736164 Title: deja-dup/duplicity backup fails with UnicodeDecodeError Status in Déjà Dup: Triaged Status in Duplicity: New Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in deja-dup package in Fedora: Fix Released Bug description: See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1470873 Description of problem: With the update from Fedora 25 to Fedora 26 Workstation, backups with deja-dup/duplicity are failing Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): duplicity 0.7.13.1 deja-dup 34.3 How reproducible: Always (scheduled and manually started backup) Steps to Reproduce: 1.
