Bug#686669: ITP: duprepare -- Prepare system backup volume sources to be processed by duplicity

[Hossam Hammady <hammady@gmail.com>]

Good step forward. However, I believe verifying backups is not enough. You need to create a virtual machine and restore your backup there to make sure everything is actually in place. Without an automated script (like duprepare-restore) it is really a big pain putting everything back. Please stay tuned as I am currently writing the manpage and will be uploading the package very soon on mentors.debian.net.

Thanks again for your followup.
