I have recently upgraded from a really old version of BackupPC to 3.0.0 
(don't remember exactly what version, but at least 4+ years old I 
believe).  Because of this, when I upgraded I wanted to keep using my 
current directory structure and config.pl files, so I changed useFHS in 
Lib.pm to 0 (as otherwise it was ignoring my computer specific config 
files).  However, once I made that change BackupPC will no longer run 
and fails with the error message:

Starting backuppc: No language setting
BackupPC::Lib->new failed

Looking at the Lib.pm file, it appears to be setting ConfDir to 
/home/backup/conf ($topDir = /home/backup), a directory that doesn't 
exist in my installation, I assume because of its age.  I have tried 
changing that line in Lib.pm to /home/backup/pc (which is where I think 
it should be pointed, that's where my general config.pl file is, though 
I may be mistaken), but it isn't working.  I'm not sure what the conf 
directory is supposed to contain since I seem to have skipped over that 
version of the code.

So is anyone willing to help me try to drag this old installation into 
3.0.0?  Thanks.
