[Duplicity-talk] Duplicity 1.2.1 Released

[Kenneth Loafman]

You can see the full details of the changes in GitLab milestone page and CHANGELOG.

Version 1.1.0 was skipped due to a major brain slip on my part.

Version 1.2.0 was released yesterday but with one major problem reported by upstream.

Version 1.2.1 is now released to fix the problem mentioned above.  Seems that PyPA decided that some pieces of the source dist did not need to be included in the source distribution and that broke things.  I finally figured out that the magic incantation needed and got things working again.  Seems nothing is staying backwards compatible.

Snaps are currently building successfully and should be out by the end of day.

There are multiple options both stable and latest:

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

Note 1: UNINSTALL duplicity first if it was installed from a different source.

Note 2: Launchpad PPAs contain builds from Bionic 18.04 onwards.

Note 3: Xenial 16.04 works with Snap and Pip installs, but cannot be built under Launchpad PPAs at the moment.

...Thanks,

...Ken
