For example, I backup with this:
duplicity --full-if-older-than 7D --encrypt-key (mykeyid) /mysourcedir
file:///mybackupdir
And I verify with this:
duplicity verify --full-if-older-than 7D --encrypt-key (mykeyid)
file:///mybackupdir /mysourcedir

Ah, in the cache? If I wiped the cache, then the metadata would have
to be decrypted?

In my case, I'm using duplicity 0.6.06 i686-linux, in any case.
