Question #264557 on Duplicity changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/duplicity/+question/264557

    Status: Open => Answered

edso proposed the following answer:
well, yes that's the disadvantage of a remote repository. how about
backing up to a local file:// repository, verifying that and keeping it
in sync with remote?

alternatively you might wanna verify only from week to week or such, as
much as your budget allows.
