Public bug reported:
Deja Dup Backups uses Google Drive as its default/suggested storage
backend. And uses Rclone to access it.
However, after about an hour of backing up, the user will see lots of
errors like:
couldn t fetch token - maybe it has expired? - refresh with rclone
config reconnect :drive{wKzRj}: : oauth2: invalid_client The provided
client secret is invalid.
and/or
unexpected HTTP response (500): 500 Internal Server Error
The problem is actually one I fixed years ago in Rclone 1.67.0, but
Ubuntu 26.04 released with a very old version of Rclone. Looks like
26.10 is getting a version with the fix though (it's sitting in
proposed), so this only heavily affects 26.04 and 25.10 (because Deja
Dup in Ubuntu releases before 25.10 didn't use Rclone to interact with
Google Drive; while Rclone is still affected in older LTS releases, and
could still be worth fixing, I don't know how common this code path of
providing custom auth tokens to Rclone is, outside of Deja Dup).
Anyway, here's the upstream fix, first available in 1.67.0:
