Hi,
This is to announce that the 0.6 series has reached End-Of-Life. No
further updates or upgrades will be made to it. The long term support
folks can easily upgrade to the tarball version
<https://launchpad.net/duplicity/+download>, the Daily PPA
<https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team/+archive/ubuntu/daily>, or the
Stable PPA <https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team/+archive/ubuntu/ppa>,
depending on their needs.
The 0.7 series will continue while we work on 0.8 with an eye to ever
larger backups and split signature files.
We would love to work with the distros to figure out how to assist in
their long term support needs, but currently we are at odds with how
development is done. We do not have time to maintain dozens of different
versions dependent on the vagaries of each of the distros, while at the
same time adding new features. Heck, we don't even have the time to
maintain the half-dozen or so versions that Ubuntu would need. So,
progress will be made, but if you want or need to stick with the
distribution repository for whatever reason, we'll try to help, but the
most common response will be to upgrade to one of the above.
...Thanks,
...Ken

nothing special: patch or backport essential bits in the
older versions as needed, when needed. business as usual,
same as for thousands of other packages.
there is no bug whatsoever here, so i'm closing this report.
