Title:
"could not back up files" dialog never shown; breaks scheduled backups
Status in Déjà Dup Backup Tool:
Confirmed
Status in “deja-dup” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
On the conclusion of a backup, if any nonreadable files exist in the
backup source directories, Deja Dup shows a notification at the bottom
of my screen telling me that the backup completed but not all files
were able to be backed up; "see dialog for details". However, this
dialog never appears. As a result, the "deja-dup --backup --auto"
process never terminates, as it's waiting for me to close a dialog
that never appeared in the first place.
This effectively breaks the automatic, "set-and-forget" backup
strategy, as deja-dup-monitor will not launch another scheduled backup
until the deja-dup process exits, which will never happen.
This only happens when deja-dup is launched with "deja-dup --backup
--auto"; launching with "deja-dup --backup" (no auto) does show the
dialog at the end of the process, allowing me to close it and properly
terminate the backup.
