What corrected for me was Seth's post in https://bugs.launchpad.net
/deja-dup/+bug/1606449 of:

    sudo apt install duplicity
    sudo apt install python-gi

Immediately works, though it appeared my system only needed to install
duplicity and python-pi was already at the newest version and did not
install.

The issue appeared on my laptop; I don't recall an issue with any
desktops here.  (Don't know if that piece of trivia helps track down the
problem source.)
