Well yeah, generating the list wasnt really the issue.(find is pretty much 
basics)
I just wasnt very sure that duplicity would support file lists.

Anyway, so far it seems to work I think.
I wanted to backup /home, so generated a file list with full path and then ran
duplicity--include-filelist full.list.txt --exclude /home /home 
ftp://address@hidden/path/

Am I doing anything wrong?(using --include-filelist only is not enough, 
duplicity wants a path argument)
(this concerns 400GB of data, so it surely will take some time, so if I did 
wrong I wouldnt know...)
