Package: backupninja
Version: 0.9.6-4
Severity: normal

The "desturl" parameter support in duplicity handler has been totally removed in the debian package since 0.9.6-1. In fact, the dup handler is the one from 0.9.5-3. Since this is not mentionned anywhere, and that the Debian changelog say exactly the contrary ("Support every duplicity-supported transport with new config option desturl"), I thought it could be a bug in the Debian package. The Debian changelog for 0.9.6-1 even closes two bugs which were requesting this parameter, so they were wrongly closed.

If it's really desired, could you explain why and document it please ?

I have replaced the debian package's dup handler with the one from backupninja 0.9.6 upstream source and it seems to work correctly, at least for FTP.

Thanks,
