    Status: Answered => Open

Rodrigo Alvarez is still having a problem:
Patching the manifest worked and I was able to move past Vol2.  However,
now I'm getting an OSError: [Errno 24] Too many open files.   I have
increased my user's limit for open files from 1024 to 50000 (fifty
thousand) and this does not change anything.   During the process,
duplicity uses about 30 GB of space on the scratch drive (75GB are still
available).  Please help: the complete output log can be found here:

For posterity:  To patch the manifest I first had to find the corrupted
manifest.  I did this by copying the gpged manifests, decrypting them,
concatenating them and searching for the wrong Hash. Once I identified
the suspect manuscript I patched it, encrypted it and replaced the
original.  Finally I replaced the patched manifest in duplicity's cache
so that it would be picked up during the process.

$ temp_location="temp_manifests2/"
$ full_file="all_manifests"
$ # Copy Original Manifest to temp location
$ cp *.manifest.gpg $temp_location
$ cd $temp_location
$ gpg --multifile --decrypt *.gpg
$ rm *.gpg
$ i=`ls`; for f in $i; do echo -e "\n\n$f" >> $full_file; cat $f >> $full_file;done
$ # Used gedit to find the wrong hash in all manuscripts and then patched the suspect manuscript file
$ gpg --symmetric Manifest_file_name
$ # Finaly delete duplicity cache so that it uses the patched manifest.
