Bug Description
I tried setting up deja-dub using the Backups GUI. When I selected my external drive in Storage Locations and typed in the desired folder on the drive, I kept getting errors that it didn't have permissions.
It wasn't until I thought to type in the path as /media/
I'm sure this isn't a huge deal, but as a new-to-Ubuntu user it was very confusing until I happened to puzzle it out. It's working fine for me now, but other users might run into this.
1. Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
2. deja-dup 34.2-0ubuntu1
duplicity 0.7.06-2ubuntu2
3. attached deja-dup.gsettings
This should be better in 35.4, I hope. If you still get errors, please re-open.
