To Vej's points: > Fix the problem, that accepting the changed hostname is not persistent
It *should* already be persistent. In the sense that each time duplicity backs up, it writes the current hostname to the manifest and checks against that going forward. I think it just looks like it's not persistent because the fqdn can frequently change. > Find a solution for the problem, that the hostname from socket.getfqdn() does not always match the one from socket.gethostname() I've proposed a MR upstream to use gethostname instead of getfqdn. With this change, hopefully we don't need to do anything on our end. https://gitlab.com/duplicity/duplicity/-/merge_requests/24 I'll close this deja-dup ticket, since I think we can just let duplicity handle this. ** Changed in: deja-dup Status: Confirmed => Invalid ** Changed in: deja-dup (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to deja-dup in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1268182 Title: Computer name changed Status in Déjà Dup: Invalid Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I am/was using Deja-Dup (version 26.0) on Fedora 19, I modified my router settings to use openDNS instead of my ISP's DNS. Then the next time I ran Deja-dup I had the message:- The existing backup is of a computer named advancedsearch.virginmedia.com, but the current computer's name is Zotac-Zbox-ID82. If this is unexpected, you should backup to a different location. Since I wasn't asked to specify a computer name, and the underlying "duplicity" (version: 0.6.22) would appear to get the machine name from the wrong file, I understand that the computer name is kept in two files (a bad practice in my mind). So can the interface be changed to show and or allow one to specify what hostname is used?
