Comment 6 for bug 1523520

I finally got around to testing it with the release version of duplicity 0.7.7, and it worked well until the very end of the initial backup when it decided to delete all my uploaded files again. I'm not sure what happened since the backup had been running flawlessly for around 8 days at that point and I wasn't watching it. I stopped the backup a few times in between but it always resumed without problems.

I could see from the console output that there was an error message after it uploaded the last file, but when I tried copying it my terminal crashed... It contained an error about a missing file the message "This might be a bug", but I couldn't find any info about that online.

I tried recreating the error with smaller directories, but it worked without any problems.

I know is is probably a duplicity bug, but is there any way to make deja-dup not delete the entire backup when an error happens? I would hate for to lose my entire backups in a year or so just because uploading a file failed or something like that.
