Title:
  Duplicity appears to have removed lots of files from the backup
  unnecessarily.

Status in duplicity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: duplicity

  Basically, on running:

  duplicity inc -v 8 --encrypt-key=<key> --sign-key=<key> /src/dir
  scp://dest/dir

  I get the following summary at the end of a lot of lines prefixed D

  -------------------------------------------------

  Which is interesting, as I sure as anything haven't deleted any files
  from the folder I requested backing up (let alone 262506) and the
  files duplicity has listed prefixed with a D still exist in the source
  folder. The DestinationSizeChange is too small to have deleted that
  many files (unless they are something different).

  Can I just check whether it has actually deleted those files or is
  this an erroneous message I have received above? If not, could this be
  fixed?

  Best,

  J
