Closing this to be very outdated, without getting any confirmation in
around 7 years. If you find this in an recent version of Déjà Dup.
Please file a new bug stating that Version.

Title:
deja-dup doesn't support correctly symbolic links in paths
Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
When restoring files from backups, files are not found if the path
includes symbolic links :
example : ( relative to user's home )
Images is a link to Donnees/Images
Images/ is included in backup :
restoration of Images/aaa.jpg will fail. ( file not found)
Donnees/Images is included in backup :
restoration of Donnees/Images/aaa.jpg works
Unfortunately, in this case right-mouse menu option "restore" is not proposed
when browsing Images/, but is ok when browsing Donnees/Images/
I guess that absolute paths are saved in backups, instead of relative ones.
So the shell option has to be aware of absolute path and give it to the backend.
