Bug Description

Deja Dup (Version 11.1) resets the value of the input field (in "settings") with the name of directory automatically if the external device is missing and switches value to "/media".
It would be better to just get a warning about the missing device, so the user can decide whether to change the directory or not.

For example I just wanted to add some folders to my backup backlist, ext. HDD wasn't nearby and I forgot about this setting "change" -> Next autom. update was "planned" to go into /media

Thanks for the bug report! As it happens, I've fixed this already in the 13.x development branch.

You can try it from the testing PPA [1] or wait for the release of the stable 14.0 sometime in February.
