Title:
No restore option after fresh install
Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
I had Ubuntu 15.04 and decided to make a fresh install of 16.04
instead of a double upgrade. I backed up my data (System
Settings/Backup) on a usb drive and installed.
After that, I tried to restore my data, but there was no "Restore..."
option available. I then ran "deja-dup --restore" from the command
line. It said that there is no duplicity process running, or something
along these lines. I'm sorry, that I didn't make screenshots.
I installed duplicity (sudo apt install duplicity) and tried again.
This time it gave me "BackendException: Could not initialize backend:
No module named gi.repository". I found this question
https://answers.launchpad.net/deja-dup/+question/276745 and installed
python-gi. After that I was able to restore my files.
I think these packages should be installed by default.
