This is what I did next:
- touch test
- change a previously backed up file (update)
- deja-dup --backup
- expected result: incremental backup is created, no errors
- actual result: incremental backup was created, I had some minor owner permission issues shown:
/home/leder/.cache/dconf
/home/leder/.gvfs
/home/leder/.viminfo
were all owned by root and I did next:
- sudo su
- chown leder.leder .cache/dconf .gvfs .viminfo
- deja-dup --backup
- expected result: incremental backup is created, no errors
- actual result: incremental backup was created, no errors (as expected)
This concludes to the error in the description being not reproducible BUT:
mentioned in the previous post and this post the folders deja-dup/metadata and dconf are read in the backup process, though the enclosing folder .cache is excluded by deja-dup configuration from the backup!
I hope that the recovery would be OK, but I do not know how to test that without erasing my home folder.
