Sometimes two hourly backups are created

[kntasks]

Hi,

Vorta/Borg sometimes makes two hourly backups, instead of one. When it does do one backup, a notification appears on my desktop saying 'error during backup creation'. However, when I check the 'archives' tab I can see an archive created (only one - instead of the two). When two archives are created no error appears.

No particular steps are needed to reproduce issue. This has been happening since I installed vorta/borg.

• OS: Void Linux
• Vorta version: 0.8.0
• Borg version: 1.1.15
• Installed from: Flatpak

If only one backup is created then this is the error that appears on my desktop:

this is the error that can be seen on vorta interface:

When multiple (two) backups are done by vorta (this is decided by Vorta - I've not configured Borg/Vorta at any point to do two hourly backups) the log (within Vorta interface) reports:

Please update to the latest released version 0.8.2

I updated using:

sudo flatpak update

Now only 1 backup archive created every hour.

Thank you.
