Title:
  deja-dup fails on restore, writing symlinks on a CIFS mount

Status in deja-dup package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I'm trying to restore my home folder from a USB external disk to a cifs-mounted folder.
  After several files are written, deja-dup dies with "unknown error"; The built-in dialog says:

  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 1414, in <module>
      with_tempdir(main)
    File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 1407, in with_tempdir
      fn()
    File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 1341, in main
      restore(col_stats)
    File "/usr/bin/duplicity", line 635, in restore
      restore_get_patched_rop_iter(col_stats)):
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/duplicity/patchdir.py", line 528, in Write_ROPaths
      ITR( ropath.index, ropath )
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/duplicity/lazy.py", line 335, in __call__
      last_branch.fast_process, args)
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/duplicity/robust.py", line 37, in check_common_error
      return function(*args)
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/duplicity/patchdir.py", line 581, in fast_process
      ropath.copy( self.base_path.new_index( index ) )
    File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/duplicity/path.py", line 430, in copy
      os.symlink(self.symtext, other.name)
  OSError: [Errno 95] Operation not supported


  And as for a workaround: Is there some way to restore without
  symlinks?
