Where does Deja-dup keep its config files?

The deja-dup settings can also be changed with dconf-editor in the dconf-tools apt package. The settings are in org.gnome.DejaDup.


Instead of using dconf-editor, you can use gsettings from command line.

  • See all the options (keys) within the Deja-Dup schema, and their configurations:

    gsettings list-recursively org.gnome.DejaDup
    
  • Edit keys:

    gsettings set SCHEMA [:PATH] KEY VALUE
    

    For example:

    gsettings set org.gnome.DejaDup include-list ['$HOME']
    

This has changed in various Déjà Dup versions, but I believe it is currently at:

~/.gconf/apps/deja-dup/

What can't you change using the GUI front-end?

UPDATE

from: launchpad.net: How do I also backup my deja Dup settings?

The settings used to be stored there, and the files are still present.

In more recent version they are stored in:

~/.config/dconf
