Public bug reported:

Duplicity v0.6.00
Python 2.6.2+
Ubuntu 9.04
[This is an enhancement, not a bug, therefore I did not submit the whole "-v9" log.]

Hello,

I like to use duplicity to restore a subtree of the backup folder, while
restoring the whole path which leads to it. More exactly, I want to run
something like:

/home/cristi/.local/bin/duplicity -vINFO --use-agent --file-to-restore
Wallet/papers sftp://backup-1/encbackup Wallet/papers

but this doesn't work because:

Making directory Wallet/papers
Error '('Error creating directory Wallet/papers', 7)' processing .
Skipping blah because of previous error

I propose to change mkdir with makedirs in path.py to address this
problem. The attached patch does this.
