[Duplicity-talk] OSError: [Errno 112] Host is down: '/w7'

[Wolfgang Rohdewald]

how should EHOSTDOWN be handled? Is it correct that
duplicity dies on that?

also I do have /w7 in exclude and not including anything
within /w7, so why is it checking /w7 at all? Shouldn't
excluded things be excluded right away before checking
for accessibility? I mean order of execution in
def diryield in selection.py
