[Duplicity-talk] duplicity gpg error

[Tim Webster]

Hmm, I think duplicity has portability issues.
I was able to fix the windows invalid file name by changing the
time_separator in globals.py from ":" to "_"
hmm, I wonder why ":" was used in the first place?
# Character used like the ":" in time strings like
# 2002-08-06T04:22:00-07:00.  The colon isn't good for filenames on
# windows machines.

New problem, 
gpg is not happy and duplicity is not calling "gpg -status-fd 2" as a result
I have no clude why I am getting the following error.
Please note:  NO ERRORS if backup to an empty destination
The the problem is likely some sort of gpg reading error.
The gpg manual says don't trust exit codes you -status-fd. So I think
duplicity needs to be fixed to do so. Also I have a feeling I need to look
 into how duplicity is calling GnuPGInterface.py. Also IMO, duplicity should
 dump gpg error messages like it dumps ssh and other subcall error messages.
