I have encountered this same problem when trying to test restoring from my Deja Dup backup. I have Deja Dup configured to perform daily backups of a particular directory (around 650GB) on my system over SSH to another computer's hard drive. When restoring a "missing file" from the file browser, I see the error mentioned in this bug's description. I tested restoring the complete backup to another directory, and this appeared to work. That isn't a very good workaround for me to get at a single file, though, since the backup size is very large.

Here is an older Ubuntu forums thread that linked to this bug:

I am currently running:
deja-dup 20.1-0ubuntu0.2
duplicity 0.6.15-0ubuntu2
Ubuntu 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot
