[Bug 1313034] Re: Deja-dup cannot make copies of some technical files

 

I confirm this bug for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with the latest updates.
I solved this problem with these commands: 

sudo chown USERNAME .cache/dconf .gvfs
sudo chgrp USERNAME .cache/dconf .gvfs
sudo chown -R USERNAME:USERNAME .dbus

Title:
  Deja-dup cannot make copies of some technical files

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

Bug description:
  Error message after copying:
  Could not back up the following files. Please make sure you are able to open them.
  /home/myuser/.cache/dconf
  /home/myuser/.dbus
  /home/myuser/.gvfs

  But I do not need these copies! And even if I add these names in
  "Folders to ignore", deja-dup STILL TRIES to make these copies, but it
  can not again.

  On my old system (Ubuntu 12.04), this error was not.
  AFAIK, deja-dup should not copy these folders automatically, even without adding to the list "Folders to ignore".

  Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit
