Re: [Duplicity-talk] Auto ignores archive dir?

Some upliftment from my side: the whole include exclude thing really confuses 
me too. It gets even worse when using placeholders.
But i checked. In my setup the complete pathes are needed for the globbing list.

try:
~/Dropbox

or

/complete/path/to/home/Dropbox

same should work for the .cache .
I use the line '/path/to/home/.cache'  for example.
