I will explain further:

Since there are so many files in a duplicity directory/backup, using the rm command (via ssh then su) will fail on too many arguments.

You can solve this by using for example

Code: Select all

find . -name 'duplicity-full.yyyymmddThhmmssZ.*' -print0 | xargs -0 rm

Sorry for the late reply, but thanks for noticing! We'll do a bug report and try to get it fixed.
