i've found in the www this "fix" but i cant find the MAKEFILE-file:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=186461

Version:
Using installed duplicity version (not found), python 2.6.6, gpg 1.4.10 (Home: ~/.gnupg), awk 'GNU Awk 3.1.7', bash '4.1.5(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)'.

It says "not found", but it's 0.6.23 ;)

Thanks.

Hi Mutschas

Did You try to install the 'python-lockfile' package via aptitude?

apt-get install python-lockfile

That helped me, but sorry, if this really is a bug and needs attention.

Hi Tõnis Bramanis,

thank you very much, that was it!

Sorry for that.

Thanks again!

I think the official packages are missing this dependency on python-lockfile. At least the 0.6.23 RPMs don't list it in the Requires: line, but I think they should.
