gio is only used when --gio is given. see manpage
http://duplicity.nongnu.org/duplicity.1.html

the command line as stated above uses the ssh backend. there were
recently changes in it (a native python based ssh backend was
introduced) which broke some things. the next release will have the old
plus the new ssh backend from which you can choose in case you don't get
the new one to work.

back to your original question
>After upgrading 11.10 server to 12.04 server Duplicity gives me the following error message:
>Import of duplicity.backends.giobackend Failed: No module named gio

this is a mere warning and shouldn't have an effect on your set up.
duplicity tries to import all backends and only later decides which one
to use.

does it break anything on your part?
