Details:

Running 'sftp  address@hidden' failed (attempt #1)
Running 'sftp  address@hidden' failed (attempt #2)
etc. etc.

command line is:

$duplicity --exclude-filelist excludefiles /home/andy
scp://address@hidden/home/andy/backup

This is as per the man page as far as I can tell.   The remote host is set up
to do key exchange rather than password login and I haven't a clue why 'sftp'
is being called when I want to do 'scp'

I have verified that I can log in to the host using SSH with my keypair and I
have also verified that I can 'scp' without any problems.

So I'm at a loss other than to post a bug report on the best way to proceed.
