Thanks everyone, I assumed something that was not true.
This problem is behind me, I truly appreciate the help here - even though it
pointed out something that I failed to verify as working.
Once I added EPEL and then installed BackupPC it went as smoothly as anyone
would expect.
I added EPEL during RHEL installation, so I thought it was done.
Your messages prompted me to look and see if my assumption was correct and
finding it wasn't led me to success.
