[Duplicity-talk] Signature files not being deleted

[Roy Badami]

I've just started experimenting with duplicity, and I'm seeing two 
issues with signatures not being removed when backups are deleted.

First issue:

From a clean state, perform two full backups, then issue

duplicity remove-all-but-n-full 1 --force ...

The older backup (and its manifest) is successfully removed, but the 
signatures are left behind at the destination.  They are deleted from 
the local cache, but of course are synced back from the destination on 
the next run.

Second issue:

From a clean state, preform the following:

duplicity full ...
duplicity incremental ...
duplicity incremental ...
duplicity full ...
duplicity incremental ...
duplicity incremental ...

Then run

duplicity remove-all-but-n-full 1 --force ...

In addition to the previous issue, orphaned signature files are left 
behind for the two old incremental backups.  The incremental backups 
themselves (and their manifests) are correctly deleted, but the 
signatures are left behind (both at the destination and in the cache).  
Duplicity issues a warning about local orphaned signature files.

This is with 0.6.13 to an ssh backend.

Am I missing something?  --extra-clean isn't really what I'm looking for 
as it's probably a little more aggressive than I want.
