Public bug reported: After a fresh install of Ubuntu 16.04 amd64 desktop, deja-dup did not work with some existing backup settings.
I discovered duplicity was not installed... After manually installing "duplicity", deja-dup still did not work (reporting error "BackendException") and I discovered I needed to manually install "python-gi" as well. Once these were installed, deja-dup began to work as expected.
