For the time being, until I can get this fixed, restore to something
like /tmp/boot, then move /tmp/boot/* to /mnt/boot/.

I now have another problem restoring the data. The main partition was
restored normally afaict. But the boot partition, mounted at /boot, was
not restored at all. In the first pass, the directory was just left
empty, logging the error "file exists" for "boot". When I retry with
duplicity ... --file-to-restore boot ... /mnt/boot
it gives me this output:

When I add the option --ignore-errors, it fails:

How can I restore my boot partition now?
The boot partition is already mounted to the correct path. duplicity
should just ignore that the directory already exists and go on restoring
its contents. duplicity will not be able to create that directory
because it is a mounted filesystem on a different partition.
I'm running duplicity 0.6.9 now.
