Hello. I want to bring to your knowledge, that we (in the german-commmunity) still see a lot of people having this problem.
If you want some reference, you can find a new theme here: https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/datensicherung-fehlgeschlagen-was-tun (in german). With this bug, I can't recommend usage of Déjà-Dup for anyone speaking german. This is very bad, because this problem is the preinstalled software in Ubuntu and used to be the most user-friendly software in the past. Please set the priority and fix it or tell me, what to do against it. Best Regards Vej (Supporter of the (unofficial) german supportforum for backups: https://forum.ubuntuusers.de/forum/backups/) PS.: If you want to have some discussion, feel free to contact me via my profile. -- 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/1377873 Title: deja-dup fails to restore missing files, that contain "german umlaut" (ä,ö,ü,Ä,Ö,Ü).
