Hi, Duplicity in 0.6.09 and 0.6.10 does not have working Amazon S3 (in the present EPEL 5, 0.6.09, the backend is not even present). This is a regression - it was working in 0.6.06. 0.6.11 has been released (2010/11/20), and the changelog states that they have now fixed this. Please can we have 0.6.11 in EPEL 5? Thank you!

Hi, Thanks for this. On EPEL 5, I got no joy. The error message was always: BackendException: Boto requires a bucket name This is coming from line 155 of /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/duplicity/backends/botobackend.py This was both without the duplicity --s3-use-new-style option, which is not supported by python-boto-1.0a (which the duplicity S3 (boto) backend uses) which is in EPEL 5. (Note that this also means that users cannot use Amazon S3's European buckets, as for these --s3-use-new-style is mandatory: though mine is actually a US bucket so it should work without). I then obtained python-boto-1.9 from rpmforge, and tried with that, and it worked. So I think the python-boto package needs an update too in EPEL 5, otherwise S3 is still not working. I don't know enough to advise which version to use, all I can say is that 1.9 from rpmforge works.
I'm going to prepare a python-boto update for EL-5, soon. If I let you know, will you be able to test this python-boto update a lot?
I'm not a python programmer, and the only part of python-boto I'm using is the S3 component - it seems to have many others. So all I can promise is that I'll test out duplicity via S3 thoroughly, but with other stuff I don't have the abilities I'm afraid - might be best to recruit testers from fedora-devel or something like that. (Correction to earlier - the one from rpmforge is 1.9b, not 1.9)

I've been using the version from epel-testing with python-boto from rpmforge with no problems for 3 weeks now.
python-boto-1.9b-6.el5 has been submitted as an update for Fedora EPEL 5. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/python-boto-1.9b-6.el5
The update, I've submitted should be better than what RPMforge delivers, because they never checked at all whether it is Python 2.4 compatible. I at least fixed some issues to avoid Python syntax errors. Please test this package and if it works, add positive karma to both, the duplicity one and the python-boto one. Thank you.
