A simpler workaround, closing iTerm.app prevent it from recreating DynamicProfiles.
For example, try to backup from Terminal.app or another term:
killall iTerm2
mackup backupfrom mackup.

Where did you modify this file? Where is it located?
I installed with homebrew, which at time of writing is installing iterm2.cfg into /opt/homebrew/Cellar/mackup/0.8.36/libexec/lib/python3.11/site-packages/mackup/applications. Changing the file directly works (until an update overwrites it again)
I found it by installing and running ag with these 2 commands:
brew install the_silver_searcher
ag -U -g iterm2.cfg $(brew --prefix)

I also encountered the same issue. Following the earlier guidance, I switched from using iTerm2 to the built-in Terminal in macOS, and now everything is functioning correctly.

It looks like it's related to DynamicProfiles being a directory. Please try this and let us know if it's still failing.
- Move
DynamicProfilesfrom your mackup directory to somewhere else as a temporary backup. - Rerun mackup backup (you should no longer see "...already exists in the backup")
Let me know if this works for any of you and we can further investigate the root cause.

@joshmedeski removing the folder with iTerm2 results in the same.
Removing the folder with the terminal app and then run mackup backup works, but once I start iTerm2 again the folder is recreated and I get the same error again.

The recreation is normal as listed here:

joshmedeski
commented on July 16, 2024
Hmm, we've run into a similar issue with other apps where the application (i.e. iTerm) overwrites files and mackup loses its symbolic link. I wonder if it's the same kind of issue here.

Is there something I can run to get more debug information?

joshmedeski
commented on July 16, 2024
There is a --verbose flag. Feel free to rerun the command with that flag and let us know if there's any further information given.
