I receive this error from a fresh install of deja-dup in Ubuntu precise... 12.04

I want to run deja-dup as root because otherwise there is no way to back up cetain files like /etc/sudoers an many others that have permisions like
-r--r----- 1 root root

Thanks for any help or advice

I get this in Xubuntu 15.04. Seems to be tied to duplicity 07.01
