I would have loved an answer like this, but the archived texts I found
stopped with: "You have to guess on ..." - but I haven´t got enough
information for an educated guess yet ;-)
Essentially I merely need to restore the complete backup :-)

first experiment:
duplicity restore
file:///home/thomas/Vorlagen/X1 /home/thomas/Vorlagen/w2k-2012
--no-encryption
Local and Remote metadata are synchronized, no sync needed.
Warning, found incomplete backup sets, probably left from aborted
session
Last full backup date: none
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 1265, in <module>
with_tempdir(main)
File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 1258, in with_tempdir

raise CollectionsError("No backup chains found")
CollectionsError: No backup chains found
There I´ve been lost and I´ve read a lot about that kind of error - but
nothing seemed to meet my problem !?
I´m certain to need help :-(
