Thanks for this log. It shows that your current backup chain started on
Oct 10, contains the offending incremental backup (Dec 19 to Dec 20),
and has later incremental backups (three more on Dec 20, one on Dec 21,
one on Dec 22, one on Dec 30). You can see for yourself under "primary
backup chain" (you also have 9 older backup chains).

So your backups are apparently still performed, despite the error
message (!?!).

As far as I understand, the SHA1 hash mismatch means that the indicated
file (first volume of Dec 19 to Dec 20 incremental backup) is different
from when it was created and its SHA1 hash was written in the
accompanying .manifest file (a text file that stores the hashes of each
volume at creation time). Is it conceivable that the transfer of this
file to your backup location failed somehow? Or that it was modified
afterwards?

I think the easiest way for you to get rid of this issue is to delete
(or rather, move away) the tail of your current backup chain, starting
at the offending file, and launch an incremental backup to cover the Dec
19 to today period.

That won't tell us how this file got corrupted however, but I for one am
not able to help further.

You may also want to delete (or rather move away) Déjà-Dup's cache
directory (~/.cache/deja-dup) in case something weird creeped into it
and is causing a problem. It will be recreated with fresh information
downloaded from the backup location (manifest and signature files).
