The same bug seems to be reported here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/deja-dup/+bug/1329133 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to deja-dup in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1313034 Title: Deja-dup cannot make copies of some technical files Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Error message after copying: Could not back up the following files. Please make sure you are able to open them. /home/myuser/.cache/dconf /home/myuser/.dbus /home/myuser/.gvfs But I do not need these copies! And even if I add these names in "Folders to ignore", deja-dup STILL TRIES to make these copies, but it can not again. On my old system (Ubuntu 12.04), this error was not. AFAIK, deja-dup should not copy these folders automatically, even without adding to the list "Folders to ignore".
