I would like to see 0.7.08 or higher for zesty. But zesty is feature
freeze, which forbids the introduction of new changes.

Please see the following excerpt from duplicities changelog for more
informations about the changes made since duplicity 0.7.06.

@Jeff: Most of them are bugfixes which would allow for merging into
zesty. Nevertheless there are some changes which might need a
FreezeException. Please see
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess for a guideline about
this.

The same changes might be forbidden in a Stable Relase Update (SRU),
which are the (non security related) updates for released ubuntu
versions. This means that it might be necessary to create patches for
the remaining bugfixes to ship them in an SRU without inclusion of new
features.

One example for things which might be considered a new feature:

* Added acdclibackend.py from Stefan Breunig and Malay Shah
  - renamed from amazoncloudbackend to stress use of acd_cli
