Déjà Dup in Ubuntu 11.10 now supports Ubuntu One backups. Go test it and report bugs!
Of course, this means that Duplicity also supports Ubuntu One, starting with the as-yet unreleased 0.6.14. Though I’ve backported support into Ubuntu 11.10, so you can start using it today.
In what is it different of backuping in the “Ubuntu One” folder ?
Second question, if I backup in Ubuntu One. Will my backup be synchronized on all my computers (it would be very disk consuming).
Thx in advance.
Florian, it’s different from backing up to the “Ubuntu One” folder because that folder is always synchronized on all your computers.
But if you Deja Dup’s Ubuntu One support, it will create a new cloud folder that is not (by default) synchronized to your computers. Thus, it doesn’t waste space duplicating the same bits on all your machines.
Hi!
This is a very cool feature! Nice job.
I working on to translate Deja Dup to my language, but I can’t testing it. Where are Deja Dup’s .mo files in an Ubuntu (11.10) system?
Thanks, keep the good work.
Hi Rodriquez, and thanks for translating!
If you spoke Spanish, for example, you would want to install language-pack-gnome-es and you would then find the .mo file here:
/usr/share/locale-langpack/es/LC_MESSAGES/deja-dup.mo
Hi
Thanks. But what’s up with the help file? I don’t find it.
Ah, the help files don’t use .mo files. They are shipped with the deja-dup executable right now (though they shouldn’t be… they should be in one of the langpack packages — I’m looking into that).
Look in /usr/share/gnome/help/deja-dup/
Oh, sorry. The files there are just broken symlinks to where the langpack will put the help files.
It seems the help files have been stripped from the package but the langpacks haven’t been refreshed yet. So no help files.
You could get the help files from trunk by following these instructions:

Does it take up cloud space (eg. part of the free 5GB) or is this an exception.
I went to the U1 cloud online and it said that the file existed but there is no data (or really small)
What is it
Yes, this takes up cloud space. This isn’t a special offering by Canonical or anything. It’s just a feature of the backup program to be able to use U1.
I’m not sure what you mean about no data? Perhaps file a bug? https://launchpad.net/deja-dup/+filebug
One thing definitely applies for design inspired by Gaga:
there are no rules. The stock market is also going through a natural correction, much
like it did in 1939. There is no bidding down the interest at these sales, and all certificates are awarded
at the maximum interest rate – 18% per annum.
