SElinux xattrs support for duplicity

Description of problem:
SELinux context of restored files are not preserved.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
duplicity 0.6.22
Linux myhost.home 3.12.6-300.fc20.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Dec 23 16:44:31 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

How reproducible: always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. duplicity --verbosity=9 --encrypt-key=12345678 --rsync-options="-avX" /Some/File file:///path/to/duplicity/backup
2. Restore the file into the different directory.
3. Compare SELinux context before and after.

Actual results:
Observe different SELinux context.

Expected results:
Expected to have the same SELinux context.

Additional info:
Attempts to use 'rsync://...' instead of 'file:///...' fails for root user as sshd prevents direct root logins.

Would you mind filing this upstream at

Thanks!

Apparently it is reported as

#829405 SElinux xattrs support for duplicity

Will keep an eye on it and pull in the changes when upstream implements it.
Thanks!

Yes, i think it is important.

This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 20. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version'
of '20'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 20 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
