Description of problem:

I've been attempting to test the sftp backend by pointing it at fedorapeople.org.

This appears to be nearly impossible, as it seems wholly unable to actually switch to the user's home dir, even if you pass it as the 'folder' in the 'Connect to Server' dialog.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

deja-dup-14.1-1.fc13.x86_64
duplicity-0.6.08b-1.fc13.x86_64

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Choose 'Connect to Server'
2. Choose sftp, fedorapeople.org
3. Either leave the defaults, or select folder '/home/fedora/<whomever>'

Actual results:

deja-dup insists on always trying to write to fedorapeople's root directory. Needless to say, this fails.

Expected results:

Not that.
