Package: duplicity
Version: 0.4.3-4
Severity: important
Forwarded: https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/index.php?21384
Tags: upstream
I've been using duplicity for years without any problems. Suddenly 0.4.3
changed the --ssh-command option and replaced it with --ssh-options. The
problem is, this is also passed to sftp, which uses different command-line
options than ssh. So a command that used to look like this:
$ sftp -oIdentityFile=/home/me/.ssh/backupkey/id_dsa [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Now looks like this:
$ sftp -oIdentityFile=/home/me/.ssh/backupkey/id_dsa
-i=/home/me/.ssh/backupkey/id_dsa [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Resulting in this error:
Running 'sftp -oIdentityFile=/home/me/.ssh/backupkey/id_dsa
-i=/home/me/.ssh/backupkey/id_dsa [EMAIL PROTECTED]' failed (attempt #1)
So now I can't backup my data.
Why was this change even necessary? What was the point, even, since sftp
doesn't use the same options as ssh?
