Hello Christian.
Regarding the original report: What else should Deja Dup do than telling
you about not sufficient space? It can not predict, which data is more
important for you!
Regarding comment no #2: You still need space in you temporary folder to
unpack the files. The fact, that this should be reported is handled by
bug report #974036 and should be discussed there.
Best Regards
Vej

Title:
deja-dup failed restore process because of a big file which had to be
restored on a nearly full hd
Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
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.
I had a partition with 150 GB of space and the backup is made with 7 GB free
space.
On the end of the partition is a big file (ca. 20 GB, may be more).
dejadup restored the files nearly in the order nautilus will show the files
in a tree view. So while the restore process it filled the hd with other data.
when it comes to the big file deja-dup used all the space of the hd (ubuntu
shows a message there is less than 750 MB) and failed with the messages that
the hd had not enough space.
After closing deja-dup "df -h" show 23 GB of free space for the partition.
I tried to restore the directory with the big file first (choosing in
nautilus context menu: "restore missing data…") and the restore
process worked well.
Thanks for all efforts and
kindest regards
