[Duplicity-talk] assertion error while backing up

[Mark Grandi]

Running a backup on my Mac OS X 10.11 laptop, i get an assertion error:

AssertionError


I don't understand this stack trace, it runs 'tdp = TempDupPath(tdpname, 
parseresults=file_naming.parse(partname))', but then in the super class for 
TempDupPath, it's hitting an AssertionError (that index is a tuple of length 
1), but as you see from the caller, its explicitly leaving that parameter out, 
so that the default is an empty tuple, and thus fails the assertion error. 
However, disabling assertions doesn't work either, as it just crashes later on 
in the program as it tries to access index 0 of said tuple.

i'm running duplicity 0.7.06
