did you have a look yourself? afaics there are some full chains missing
volumes at the start (eg. full.20151112T080033Z has no vol1-318).

1. how did you list the backend files?

2. what is your backend?

fyi. 0.7.04 patched this issue
* Merged in lp:~raymii/duplicity/fix-swiftbackend-max-10000-files-in-list
  - Swiftclient by default returns at max 10000 files. By adding
    full_listing=True we make sure all objects are returned.
    Ref: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/duplicity-talk/2015-05/msg00060.html
    and http://docs.openstack.org/developer/python-swiftclient/swiftclient.html#swiftclient.client.get_container

so it might be a backend bug.

wrt. prevention. verify your backups on a regular basis and you will
know they should work if push comes to shove. disadvantage is of course
that this strategy multiplies your amount of traffic.
