When did file: become unsupported? Or am I doing something
incredibly foolish?
I think you can do without the file:/// to use local storage
No, tried that already. Doesn't like none URL versions.
% /sw/bin/duplicity full --encrypt-key XXXXXXXX --sign-key XXXXXXXX
$HOME/Documents/ /tmp/Documents/
Command line error: One of the arguments must be an URL. Examples of
URL strings are
"scp://address@hidden:1234/path" and "file:///usr/local". See the man
page for more information.
Enter 'duplicity --help' for help screen.

Note also that this claims version 6.00 but it was installed from the
6.04 source tarball. This is all on Mac OS X if that makes a
difference.
% /sw/bin/duplicity --version
duplicity 0.6.00

It's file: not file::. That's the problem.
That is just my typo in the text comment. The actual command list was
a true cut and paste into the mail message. The command line has a
single colon ":", here is the exact screen text (keys redacted).
% /sw/bin/duplicity full --encrypt-key XXXXXXXX --sign-key XXXXXXXX
$HOME/Documents/ file:///tmp/Documents/

This is a problem with the install on Mac OS X that happened in moving
from 0.5X to 0.6.X ?? I now tried a backup to a remote system and got
the same error
% /sw/bin/duplicity full --encrypt-key XXXXXXXX --sign-key XXXXXXXX
$HOME/Sites scp://my.remote.host/testbackup
UnsupportedBackendScheme: scheme not supported in url: scp://sthmac/testbackup
My installation command completes without errors. The variable
PYTHONPATH=/sw/lib/python2.5, and the actual directory, "/sw/lib/
python2.5/site-packages/duplicity" seems to have all the python code
in it.
Here is the duplicity build command:
sudo python setup.py install --prefix=/sw --librsync-dir=/sw
