Deja-Dup Alpha: unable to create lock in backend: chmod

Good morning
since a couple of weeks I receive this error message

unable to create lock in backend: chmod smb://@//locks/3d97e882772d62ad417c5c5298648b1a8c5bfcae9b9906410be904ceb7d0f4b5: operation not supported

I use Deja Dup 48.1 (alpha). Same version was working before

I didn’t change anything and my access to the smb folder (I can read, write, create, delete, file and folders with the backup user)

thank you very much!

Hello! This is a regression in Restic 0.18.0 unfortunately - did you recently upgrade that?

There’s a PR to fix this but it hasn’t landed yet: backend/local: ignore chmod "not supported" errors by mikix · Pull Request #5345 · restic/restic · GitHub

The workaround is to downgrade to 0.17.3 :confused:

Another workaround is to connect via the rclone backend instead of as a “network server” but that requires some manual configuration

Possibly Restic got upgraded
Thank you very much, will wait the regression to be fixed
