Created attachment 885033 [details] abridged debug output Attached output of debug, abridged because the whole files is too big.
btw I ran deja-dup with: $ pkexec DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1 deja-dup-preferences --display=$DISPLAY > ~/deja-dup-debug_output

Perhaps, that's a bug with the mirror system? Perhaps that's a bug with me... Perhaps just missing something bleeding obvious!
OK, downloaded from koji and did a localinstall of deja-dup and duplicity. All good so far as that's concerned... But, now the error is: Temp space has 0 available, backup needs approx 68157440. Which I expect should have been the error before? Anyway, how do I change the location for temp space? I'd like to suggest that backing up prior to mucking around with the system due to running out of space is a fairly normal use scenario, so having deja-dup fail without alternatives for temp space location needs fixing?
OK, I've worked out how to change the location of temp space. And, now this bug seems to be a dup of Bug 1086990 - which in turn seems to be a dup of Bug 892063.
