Re: [Duplicity-talk] gpg 2.1 issue solved WAS:Re: cannot restore encrypted backup

[mailinglist]

Yes, I have that option in gpg-agent.conf too. :)

I made the backup script, but it is really simple. I just backs up a few 
things weekly to S3 and I am able to query the status and file list of 
the backup.
It is really simple but does the job.
