I downloaded duplicity-0.4.0 last weekend and hit the same problem.
There's a missing '=' sign in the file commandline.py. (If you have
already installed duplicity, it will be in
$PYTHONLIB/site-packages/duplicity/commandline.py, where $PYTHONLIB is
something like /usr/lib/python2.2, or wherever python is installed on
your machine.)  Here's a patch:

*** commandline.py      2003/07/20 12:22:46     1.1
