Summary     : Simple backup tool and frontend for duplicity
Description :
Déjà Dup is a simple backup tool. It hides the complexity of doing backups the
'right way' (encrypted, off-site, and regular) and uses duplicity as the
backend.

Features:
 • Support for local, remote, or cloud backup locations (Amazon S3 or Rackspace)
 • Securely encrypts and compresses your data
 • Incrementally backs up, letting you restore from any particular backup
 • Schedules regular backups
 • Integrates well into your GNOME desktop

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Update to Version 26.0 which fixes issues related to full temporary directories.

In Fedora 18, /tmp uses tmpfs and has restrictions on space. Deja-dup (duplicity) can use a lot of space for creating backups and this update includes a patch that tries /tmp, /var/tmp and  ~/.cache/deja-dup/tmp in that order, preferring a directory on the same partition as the source files.
