Hi Vej, That bug is similar, but I don't think it's a duplicate. In the bug from five years ago, the request is to make the Unknown Error less intimidating by doing things like hiding the traceback. To be clear, this bug is not about the technical implementation of the dialog box. What I was trying to request was a policy change: that the dèjá dup project consider it a high priority problem that end users are too often shown the dreaded Unknown Error. As a mature project, dèjá dup should not need to fall back to debugging info for common situations (e.g., backup directory not writable). Perhaps a milestone for the next revision could be "review common causes of Unknown Error and add error handling code to avoid it."
