/]# duplicity restore --file-to-restore .local/share/gnote
file:///run/media/wcase/LinuxBUb/bill-19BU  bill-19BURestored

I misunderstood the instructions.  Duplicity restore - has three
elements. If you are looking for a particular set of files within the
backedup set of files 1) the location/name/path of the files one wants
to restore 2) the location of the set of files that have been backed up
and 3) the location of where to put them.  I was misreading the
instructions so that I thought the elements 1) and 2) could be
combined.  

But I still have a problem.  

I am still getting an error message.  For the above /]# duplicity
restore I get as a return.
