Bug description:

  2. deja-dup 18.1.1-0ubuntu1.1~maverick1
      duplicity 0.6.10-0ubuntu1

  Details:
  I am trying to backup some directories which contain square brackets in their absolute paths, e.g. "/home/User/[Games]/".
  The directory of concern is several gbits in size. When i started the backup-procedure it only took a couple of seconds and deja-dup told me it's done(which made me suspicious). When i looked into the target directory(where the backup should be written to) i found a manifest and two files which were only a few kbits in size though. I was able to reproduce this behaviour every time.

  I have come to the conclusion that this might be somehow connected
  with the square brackets in the paths since i was perfectly able to
  backup directories that did not contain any special characters in
  their paths.
