[Bug 989750] Re: repeatedly asks for encryption password when backing up, even though "remember password" is ticked

 

Same here. Backing up over samba share. Deja-Dup is completely
unuseable, using Ubuntu 14.10 and Arch Linux (Deja-Dup 32.0, duplicity
6.5 and 7.0).

Title:
  repeatedly asks for encryption password when backing up, even though
  "remember password" is ticked

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

Bug description:
  I've set deja-dup to back up automatically, and to encrypt files. But it never gets far: every few seconds, it brings up a "password needed" window somewhere out of sight (behind other windows; but that is another problem/feature), even though I've told it to remember the password.
   
  So using this backup software seems entirely impractical; it will never finish.
