[Duplicity-talk] Google Drive/Docs file deletion

Hi,

I have a server that gets backed up to a Google Drive account via the
gdocs duplicity back-end. I do a full backup once a month and
incremental updates every day. In general, this works reliably and I
am very satisfied with the results. There is only one minor issue that
is a little annoying.

For the monthly run, when a full backup and a full verify have
completed successfully I do "remove-all-but-n-full 1" in order to
remove older backups and free up space. After the run has completed it
seems that the files are not deleted however, but rather moved to the
top-level folder of my account. Every month I need to manually delete
the old backup files which can be quite many with all the incremental
backups.

Is anyone else experiencing the same issue? Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for a great backup solution in any case!

Best Regards,
Danjel McGougan
