Public bug reported:

There are two bugs here; I'm describing the second, layered on the
first:

The first is that even though I have explicitly listed ~/.cache in the
folders to ignore, I get a complaint that it failed to back up something
in .cache.

the second bug is that when it does a password/restore verification test
(which it does every two months), I end up with a completion message
that makes no sense: it tells me that the test succeeded, but then lists
a couple of files, suggesting maybe that they were the only ones which
were backed up? Or the only ones for which the restore test was
successful?

See attached graphics.
