This sounds annoying, sorry! The version of deja-dup in Ubuntu 17.10 has reworked a bit of the external drive detection code, I wonder if that would work any better for you. (Not suggesting that you upgrade to a non-LTS necessarily, but just holding out hope that 18.04 will improve this for you when you eventually do an upgrade.) -- 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/1740238 Title: Backup trying to start twice when connecting external hard drive; given 'operation already pending' error to close each time I connect the drive Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I have scheduled daily backups for a laptop to be kept forever on a drive that is often disconnected from the laptop.
