This update for backintime to version 1.1.20 fixes several issues.

These security issues were fixed:

- CVE-2017-7572: The _checkPolkitPrivilege function in serviceHelper.py in backintime used a deprecated polkit authorization method (unix-process) that is subject to a race condition (time of check, time of use) (bsc#1032717).
- Don't store passwords given to polkit helper
- boo#1007723: General security hardening measures 

These non-security issues were fixed:
