 * On my main site, I have to disable symposium **everytime** I want to use duplicator
   to create a package.
    I have tested on a fresh install of latest wp with only
   those two plugins active and its the same problem.
 * **The problem:** When wp_symposium is active and you try to use duplicator. When
   you click to create a package, the popup appears but it is hidden behind a semi
   transparent veil that covers the screen so that you cannot click anywhere.
    **
   Solution:** Disabling Symposium during package creation and then re-enabling 
   it.

 * I have not used this plugin therefor know nothing about it but I just read the
   following on the plugin page:
 * This project is currently in Beta, the underlying logic to perform all these 
   migration tasks is quite involved. It’s impossible to know how each system is
   setup; this is why your feedback is important to us. Thanks for helping us to
   make WordPress the best blogging platform in the world.

 * Fair-do’s, I am sure the problem could also be on their side.
    I have used Duplicator
   successfully for a long time and this is the only clash I Have found, a small
   Annoyance. I just report this as a problem I have found, maybe you could recreate
   it and discount Symposium as the cause, I don’t know. I just reported it so it
   can be investigated and then maybe others won’t have the same problem in future.
   I will report it on their side to, lets see who comes up with a solution first.
