Just to add this: in the dmesg there is a line saying 'readonly' that
might possibly confuse somebody. The reason is the external hdd
simulates both a cd drive as well as a hdd - the simulates cd drive only
contains windows-drivers. The actual hdd was mounted read-write and
writing on the hdd was definitely possible.

File System is NTFS btw, so files > 4gb should work.

Title:
  deja dup hanging on VM-Image

Status in “deja-dup” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  So hi everybody,
  I've been trying to backup my computer again with deja-dup a couple of times and it just won't go past a virtual machine image. It's not hanging as in 'the program is hanging and not responding' but it just won't go on. And it's NOT that I have been to impatient. I am backing up to an external (USB)-hdd but I've tried waiting about 10 hours and 8 hours with no success. A rough estimate for this 20GB file at a transfer rate 10MB/s would be half an hour.
  I've attached the dmesg excerpt of my ~8hours attempt, the ls -al of the folder it hangs in and a screenshot.

  I've tried to look for logs of duplicity (which I believe it uses to
  backup?) with locate and in /var/log/duplicity but found nothing. If
  there is anything else I can provide I'll try to do it.
