Thank you for this workaround. Removing the directory and executing
the cleanup command made duplicity get the cache from the remote location.

I think the cache got broken because duplicity has run several times
without the remote location available to actually do the backup. Maybe
the local cache was updated but the remote location did not. However
the clean-up command always says the cache was in sync.

Thank you,

Kind regards,
