I have a litte -big- issue since I tried to install duplicity in my VM this morning. First a little bit of context, if I'm able to reproduce:
I have a debian 9.6 stable server that acts as kvm. At the moment it only has 2 VMs both with debian 9.6 stable. One for nextcloud+collabora and the other one with emby+transmission.
This week decided I wanted to backup the files to backblaze in case of the server breaking down, hdds, etc, etc.
I installed duplicity first on bare metal, thinking that I might want to send the whole images to the cloud. That went well (sudo apt install duplicity and then upgraded to the version in backports to be able to use it with backblaze), installation progress did not fail or return any errors. Then I realised that sending the whole images from the VMs would be too much of an overkill, that the things that mattered to me weere the files stored, not the vms themselves. So decided to install duplicity in the vm.
And I did so. The only different thing I did this time was: sudo apt install duplicity -t stretch-backports
That returned a whole pile of errors, resulting in this:
dpkg: error processing package duplicity (--configure):dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

At the beginning I thought due to the version of python. I changed the version for the current user, via .bashrc with an alias, from 3.5 to 2.7 and logged off/on to see if that could help. No luck.
This is the first time I see this issue so I'm a bit lost. Checked the internet and performed some of the things recommended for this kind of errors:
sudo apt clean
sudo apt autoremove
No luck. Same packages fail when being configured.
Then tried sudo dpkg --configure -a
sudo dpkg --configure -a

Whatever that module ConfigParser is, I saw it was changed to configparser in python3.5. I guess when I tried to installed the packages they were trying to find ConfigParser but I was using python3.5 at that time. I don't understand why if I have changed to python2.7 still gets the same error.
I have also tried to delete the packages one by one to not avail. Installing not related packages fail as well now due to those python packages. I'm not sure where else to look or where else to try.
Any ideas?
Apologies if it's something very simple but I don't seem to find the problem anywhere.
Many thanks!
* For now anyway xD
