Package: deja-dup
Version: 44.0-2
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
Installed Deja-Dup on a new installation of Debian 12.
After setting up backup location of Google Drive attempted to run first backup.
Received error stating that requires googleapi and PyDrive.
Able to install python3-googleapi from Debian 12 repository.
However, PyDrive is depreciated and not available in Debian 12 or any other version of debian.
python3-pydrive2 is availabe currently in sid (unstable) but not debian 12.
Without python-pydrive2 installed on system backup to google drive cannot function on debian 12, but this package is not available in debian 12.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Backup to google drive not possible due to dependency not available in Debian 12.
* What was the outcome of this action?
Backup failed.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Backup to be successful.
