Issue with backup.py after upgrading 0.12.0 to 0.12.1

[hMsats]

I was running backup.py already with version 0.12.0 without problems (Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS). After upgrading to 0.12.1, I got this output from lightningd:

After returning to 0.12.0 all was fine again.

I can't even start the v0.12.1... :(

@BTCBellyButton I haven't tried to start v0.12.1 without the backup plugin after I got the above error, so I don't know if it would run without the backup plugin.

[BTCBellyButton]

Yeah, I wouldn't try. Just make sure the backup plugin is actually working properly with the 0.12.0.
I am also having troubIes with the rebalance.py, drain.py plugins. They stopped working with the new v0.12.0 release and I can't figure out why...

[rustyrussell]

This error looks like you're running master, not 0.12.1?

[hMsats]

Indeed I was running master, didn't think that would make a difference. I will retry with 0.12.1

[hMsats]

Actually I'll wait for version 0.13 and close the issue for now.
