It was reproducible and I think I have discovered the issue a shortly
after my second attempt.

1. I am restoring to a new computer as a way to migrate my data.
2. A setup script create a ~/bin and I renamed it to match my own ~/Bin that 
restore could merge.
3. But that directory was owned by root!
4. I discovered this when manually rsyncing some directories.

When I changed the permissions, deja-dup did complete on my third try, I
had done about 20% of the work by accident. The first failure was about
50% into the restore, more than a gig of files were properly installed.

If this is the case, I think the issue may be that I was not informed
about the permission issue to address the matter.
