does not seem to blame based on a test I did while setting this boolean to true (uninstalling my witness EteSync before to avoid any bias).

https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/application-element#allowbackup
https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/application-element#fullBackupContent

More precisely on LineageOS 23.0, copying /data/data/com.etesync.syncadapter/ and restoring it does not restore EteSync accounts we were connected with, contrarily for instance to F-Droid: aFreeRDP (com.freerdp.afreerdp):

FreeRDP/FreeRDP/blob/89a8ed852bfdee071f04d955079d937e57165452/client/Android/Studio/aFreeRDP/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml

which does not mention backup.

Based on backup search in the issues of this repository:

#95 and #180 are not relevant.
