Perhaps I should also add that my installation of Ubuntu 22.04 dates
from last week when it had just come out. The timestamps on the backup
files on the remote machine date from last summer/fall, when I was
running 20.x or 21.x. Might a bug have been there that is no longer
there?

Title:
  duplicity backup fails with obscure error message Ubuntu 22.04

Status in Duplicity:
  Invalid
Status in duplicity package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I try to do a backup onto a network location (ssh://192.168.1.61 - I
  can successfully connect to this location via ssh). The backup
  completes the scan phase, then dies with error messages like this:

  Failed to read /tmp/duplicity-xdksj47v-tempdir/mktemp-_5khubio-2:
  (<class 'EOFError'>, EOFError('Compressed file ended before the end-
  of-stream marker was reached'), <traceback object at 0x7f5f660da740>)

  While the backup is running, we can see a duplicity* directory under
  /tmp:

  $ ll /tmp/duplicity-i6olpr17-tempdir/
  total 16
  drwx------  2 scohen scohen  4096 Apr 24 12:52 ./
  drwxrwxrwt 26 root   root   12288 Apr 24 12:52 ../
  -rw-------  1 scohen scohen     0 Apr 24 12:52 mkstemp-cx21bs8l-1

  However, note that this is not the directory mentioned in the failure
  message.

  A scan of the directory after the failure reveals no files like
  /tmp/dupl*

  Why is it trying to read files that do not exist?

  $ lsb_release -rd
