Hi,

More bug fixes and an announcement of deprecation.

The Short Filenames capability will be removed in 0.9.0, which is still a
ways to go.  This is to accommodate the disk volume numbers that will be in
every duplicity filename from that point on.  We will still be able to read
old short and original filenames, but can no longer support the 8.3
constraint.

You can see the full details of the changes at Milestone 0.8.14
<https://launchpad.net/duplicity/+milestone/0.8.14>.

There are multiple options both stable and daily:

   - Source - https://gitlab.com/duplicity/duplicity
   - Stable tarball install - https://launchpad.net/duplicity/+download
   - Daily duplicity PPA -
   https://code.launchpad.net/~duplicity-team/+archive/ubuntu/duplicity-develop-git
   - Stable duplicity PPA -
   https://code.launchpad.net/~duplicity-team/+archive/ubuntu/duplicity-release-git
   <https://code.launchpad.net/~duplicity-team/+archive/ubuntu/duplicity-develop-git>
   - Stable snap builds - “sudo snap install duplicity —classic"
   - Latest snap builds - “sudo snap install duplicity —classic —edge"
   - Latest pip3 builds - “sudo pip3 install duplicity"

NOTE: UNinstall duplicity first if it was installed via the distribution
repository.  For Ubuntu, that would be "sudo apt-get purge duplicity".

...Thanks,
...Ken
