I launch the "Backup" panel from the Ubuntu Settings application. Then I perform a backup. After the backup completes, I get a pop-up window presenting a list of files that were not backed up. The list is extensive, and includes important looking files in /boot and so forth.
In a subsequent test, I launch deja-dup from "sudo." Then I do a backup, as above. This time, the backup job completes without any warnings or errors. It seems to me that the integration of deja-dup into the Ubuntu Settings application needs to ask for a privileged password, and then launch deja-dup with high privilege. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/851771 Title: Permission Denied error during backup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/deja-dup/+bug/851771/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
