Question #248020 on Duplicity changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/duplicity/+question/248020

edso proposed the following answer:
well .. that was fun, not really ;) it works. please contact me
privately to tell me in which german city, should i ever travel through,
you are going to buy me a beer :))

ok. the problem is three fold

first 
 requests to https://cloud1.goneo.de/share/ take a very long time. that's why you got the timeout
 use /share/<userid> and it get's much quicker

secondly
 there's a bug in python httplib that leaks previous response data of a connection into the body of the next response even if the response was closed earlier
 that hits on first webdav connections - try to list, need auth, try list with auth, fail because of expat parsing error
 as your listing was never successful due to that, it retried numretries

thirdly
 you are not allowed properly access https://cloud1.goneo.de/share/
 i observed when i created a folder 'test' in /share with another webdav client, it vanished on the next login
 so i assumed together with the existence of the folder /share/<userid> that you might only be allowed to access that folder properly

tl;dr

use  
 webdavs://cloud1.goneo.de/share/<userid>/duplicity-backup 
and it should work. does for me. 

ede/duply.net

PS: i couldn't figure out why the server sends wrong user/digest missing
sometimes, but it probably goes together with the slow response time of
/share access
