Bug Description

On Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS,
with:
deja-dup 30.0-0ubuntu4
duplicity 0.6.23-1ubuntu4.2

"deja-dup --restore-missing" do not scan older version of missing files,
because it always scans for files only in the latest collection !

Enabling debug mode (DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1) shows that
calls to "duplicity list-current-files" never use the "--time" argument,
so the latest collection is always listed indeed.

After checking lastest version of sources,
in file "libdeja/tools/duplicity/DuplicityJob.vala",
the "--time" argument is added in case of RESTORE mode (line 1374)
but not in case of "LIST" mode (line 1386)
