[Duplicity-talk] verify and restore

[Jonathan Campbell]

I am currently using RC9 but have not had any 100% successful verificatiion or restore with other previous recent versions. I am using ssh and encrypt to backup files and the backup process seems to look OK and completes without errors. But verify and restore always fails before completion. I have tried backing up to a number of different servers (including rsync.net) in case it is a remote server problem and result is always the same.

Here is output from a recent test backup (an incremental backup with no changes to the files) following a successful full backup, followed by a failing verify.
