Public bug reported: On Ubuntu 17.10, I have deja-dup 36.2-0ubuntu1 installed. When I run "DEJA_DUP_DEBUG=1 deja-dup", it starts a backup as soon as it opens, as expected. But the backup fails. I get the following at the end of the output. I tried uninstalling Dropbox and deleting its .dropbox-dist directory, and then deja-dup crashed when trying to back up a completely different file (but the same byte in the same position). So I don't think this is due to any of the filenames I have in my backup target. I also tried a few commands to find non-ASCII filenames, with no luck. I'm not sure what else I can do to troubleshoot.
