I guess my home gave it too good of an exercise, uncovering a rather 
interesting issue:

Verification of my backup fails because for some reason, one of my files has a 
CRLF (I think so anyway, as the filename is printed on two lines without 
necessity and trying a filename with newlines didnt have duplicity choke) in 
its filename which probably is  a result of a copy paste action 
when setting the filename after a download in Konqueror. Unfortunately, I 
haven't yet figured out how to get the shell to print the actual chars in the 
filename? 

I might be able to make a tar of the tree, but the file is comparatively large 
(~5MB so I dont want to post it here).

This seems to be a rather rare case indeed, but I think something should be 
done with files like that? Maybe replace control chars with their C like 
escaping (think \n or \t etc)? 


Note that it does not generate any issue during full or incremental backup.
