Would you mind filing this upstream? https://bugs.launchpad.net/duplicity/+filebug Thanks

I got the same stack trace with a similar detail message: UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xfc' in position 10: ordinal not in range(128) The backup target was a local exernal disk in my case. To be encrypted as well. The error happend when LANG=de-DE.utf8 was set, but not with LANG=en_US.utf8 or LANG=C
I'm seeing the same thing, backup to a USB drive
