Re: [Duplicity-talk] Archive directory not being created...

[Scott Schappell]

Ah, there we go. Installed via FreeBSD ports - duplicity --version

So once the FreeBSD port gets updated, what is the purpose of the  
archive directory? Is it like the database that keeps track of what's  
been backed up?
