Bug Description

Upgraded from 18.04 to 20.04 using do-release-upgrade. Dejadup now fails to make backups. Log attached, i think the last line is the error.

"PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: b'/home/morpheus/.config/gnome-mpv/.deja-dup-ignore'

I have checked inside that folder, and there is no hidden file '.deja-dup-ignore'

Were you using the snap package? There was a bug briefly in duplicity that would have caused this error, but it is fixed now. Do you still see this?

I don’t believe the bug was ever present in Ubuntu 20.04 itself.
