Hello David, or anyone else affected,

Accepted duplicity into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/duplicity/0.6.23-1ubuntu4.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!

duplicity (0.6.23-1ubuntu4.1) trusty; urgency=medium

  * debian/patches/exception-encode.patch:
    - Fix exception when backing up to a directory with utf8 characters
      in its path when using the gio backend (as deja-dup does).
      LP: #1313966
    - Fix a couple more encoding issues during exception handling. These
      bits aren't as critical, but are bundled in same patch from upstream
      and are still useful. LP: #1289288, LP: #1311176
