Deja-dup failed to restore with an unknown error.

Question

Hi. I recently installed arch after running sabayon linux (a gentoo based noob distro like ubuntu) for a while. Just before I wiped my hard drive to install arch, I backed up my sabayon's home directory to my external hard drive using deja dup. However when I opened up my hard drive on arch, and try to restore the backup from its location, it says:
Restore Failed: Restore failed with an unknown error
Is there a way to fix this?

Answer 1

It still doesn't work which is weird because it should work because my hard drive has 265 GB of free space which should be more than enough. I type:
sudo duplicity --tempdir=~/ --gio file:///run/media/imran/Imran/Restore /tmp/Rstr
And get:
Import of duplicity.backends.u1backend Failed: No module named httplib2
