Question #183711 on Duplicity changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/duplicity/+question/183711
edso posted a new comment: i just checked the code and cannot see why gpg-agent with duplicity shouldn't work (make sure to use --gpg-agent and to monitor your backup if gpg-agent asks for the passphrase). the patch mentioned above actually only uses an old proven to work routine to decrypt the first volume to make sure encryption settings are still identical to the existing first volume on the backend. could we please get a wrap overview of who still has issues using gpg-agent and who uses ordinary PASSPHRASE env var ? as it looks like using PASSPHRASE works sometimes i like to single out the gpg agent issue into a new bug and treat issues with that there. a Note on gpg-agent: i hope all of you using it are aware that it has a hardcoded maximum cache time (i recall 4h) meaning that passphrases time out pretty fast, even if you give it a very long timeout time. so it actually does not allow for unattended backups. ..ede/duply.net -- You received this question notification because you are a member of duplicity-team, which is an answer contact for Duplicity. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~duplicity-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
