Hi,

Yes, look at the verify command.  It's in the man page, but simply:

$ duplicity verify [options] [--compare-data] [--file-to-restore <relpath>]
[--time time] source_url target_directory

Verify without --compare-data will verify the consistency (hashes0 of the
backup.  With --compare-data all of the target is compared to the source.
That takes a while longer.

...Ken
