I tried to restore a missing file with nautilus context menu "restore missing files". Deja-dup showed the error message: Fehler beim Erstellen des Ordners: Der Dateiname ist zu lang (retranslation: error creating the folder: The filename is to long.)
Restoring the same file on another ubuntu-system without home encrytion works instead without any error message. -- 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/1635874 Title: deja-dup can not restore long path and filenames when restored on an encrypted home directory (backuped without home encrytion Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I tried to restore my deja-dup backup after a new install migrating from 14.04.x to 16.04.01. I choose to make a fresh install because need to encrypt data. Because of known bugs with encrypted swap I use the option to encrypte the user-directory. Because of a problem with a big files (bug report may follow) at the end of the backup I had to restore directories by choosing "set back to an earlier version" (retranslation from german "Auf frühere Version zurücksetzen") for one dirctory after another. After a big directory (ca. 70 GB) deja-dup ends the restoring process with an error message: "The following files could not be restored. Please ensure that you have write premission for them." (retranslated from german translation) Deja-dup did not tell something about too long path/filename. Here are two examples from the list with 28 files (they are not directly in root but in the Documents-Folder inside the user directory): '/MATERIAL/PHYSIK NAWI/Überblick zur DVD Relativitätstheorie und Gravitationswellen. Spannende Filme über eine 100 Jahre alte Theorie und ihre höchst aktuellen Anwendungen.pdf' '/FALDERA/12-Physik/12.2 Quantenphysik des Lichts/04 -- Lichtelektrischer Effekt/Albert Einstein: Über einen die Erzeugung und Verwandlung des Lichtes betreffenden heuristischen Gesichtspunkt. In: Annalen der Physik. 322, Nr. 6, 1905 -- 1905_17_132-148.pdf' Because restoring my backups to an unencrypted home directory worked before, it could be related to the encrypted user-directory.
