[Duplicity-talk] MemoryError while backup

[Florian Lindner]

Hello,

I've using duplicity from Debian Etch (http://packages.debian.org/etch/duplicity 
). While doing the backup there always occurs a MemoryError. Since I'm  
not so sure about the key settings I have also included a gpg --list- 
keys.
It is a virtual server with 512MB guaranteed  memory. The control  
panel does not show any ressource alert.

Thanks,

Florian
