Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Unfortunately, we cannot work on this bug because your description didn't include enough information. You may find it helpful to read "How to report bugs effectively" http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html. We'd be grateful if you would then provide a more complete description of the problem.
We have instructions on debugging some types of problems at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures. At a minimum, we need: 1. The specific steps or actions you took that caused you to encounter the problem. 2. The behavior you expected. 3. The behavior you actually encountered (in as much detail as possible).

However, for user lin it gets well into the adding of files when it fails saying it cannot find a file in "/home/lin/.config/dconf/user.13FBIZ". I suspect this might be a temporary file it is building, Every time I try it the error is the same except the ending after the last dot in the file name changes. This may be a bug or suggest a flaw in the data it is adding. The system operates correctly for all users, even the account that is supposed to be backed up. Also if I look in the specified directory I do not see the file for which it is looking. Directly using tar works fine. Tar must use a pipe to connect to a compressor but does not run into the name problem file-roller does. You may want to consider this a bug.
