Looks like I found the cause of my problem here: among the folders I was
backing up was my torrent clients config folder, which had a "incomplete
píeces" folder in it. When torrents where being downloaded, duplicity
seemed like it couldn't handle those files. I still have to wait for the
next automatic backup to confirm it, though.
