Comment 88 for bug 1217959

I thought this had been fixed, but I ran into something else very similar today:

When I had a symlink set for ~/.cache/deja-dup, deja-dup actually _deleted_ this symlink, and still filled up my home folder. I ran out of space and the backup failed.

Perhaps this is why it was succeeding for me, just by coincidence I had enough space at the time?

Or would it be better to make a new issue for this seeming deletion of symbolic links?
