0.4.3.RC11 Ready for Test

New in v0.4.3.RC11 (2007/07/20)
------------------------------
Duplicity now correctly processes scp URL's of the form:
scp://user@host[:port]/
where the directory spec is empty. This fixes a bug where the
user could not write into the home directory on the target.
The SSH/SCP backend has had an overhaul. It now requires the
python-pexpect module. Normally this can be obtained from your
distro's repository, but if you want, you can download pexpect
from http://pexpect.sourceforge.net.
The SSH/SCP backend work was done to allow the user to use password authentication rather than public-key. You may now enter a password, either through the FTP_PASSWORD environment variable, or at the console. To activate this feature you will need to use the option --ssh-askpass on the command line. The default is public-key, which does not look for a password from either source.
Various fixes to the man page for --ssh-askpass, --remove-older-than, and --archive-dir.
