[Duplicity-talk] Duplicity generating orphaned b ackup files…

[bsd]

Hello, 


I am using ducplicity since quite a long time to do server backup on an FTP 
backend. Thank you very much for all your effort developing this very usefull 
and versatile tool ! 

I am using It on FreeBSD and Ubuntu. 

One of the server I am backing up has generated thousands of files on the 
remote FTP server. I have decided to wipe out everything in order to restart a 
fresh backup for all my servers (8 servers more or less). 


The output gives the following results : 

> Import of duplicity.backends.giobackend Failed: No module named gio
> NcFTP version is 3.2.4
> Local and Remote metadata are synchronized, no sync needed.
> Warning, found the following orphaned backup files:

All servers seems to generate these "backup sets not part of any chain". 
Most of them only generates one, but even after a "cleanup --force" It comes 
back. 


Do you have any idea where this might come from and how to definitely get rid 
of these. 

=== 

Same thing for the giobackend module… how can I get rid of these warning. 
I have seen a talk about this, which leads to a patch being produced…  
Has It been committed to FBSD ? 


Thanks for your help.
