Hi, All! When duplicity invoked as
duplicity --help >somefile
or, in my actual case:
duplicity --help|grep -q -- --name
The error will be generated:

The problem is in commandline.py line 187:
encoding = getattr(file, "encoding", "UTF-8") return encoding
Actually there should be:
if encoding: return encoding return "UTF-8"
It is because the third argument of getattr will be substituted only when requested attribute not exists at all. But, i suspect, there actually is the file.encoding attribute with the value of None.
