Hi,
If I just backup the directory and then do a apt-get install backuppc, would
that work?
What are the actual steps if you dont mind?

I recently built an rpm package for 3.3.0 on Mageia-3. Went like a charm
- using the config script from the 3.3.0 tarball
- keeping the patch for the workaround against the perl suid problem.
My build is local (not yet in the official Mageia repositories) since I
did it in preparation of the backuppc package for the upcoming Mageia-4
release. In case you want to have the specfile, say so.
When installing the 3.3.0 rpm package, to keep your data:
- evidently, use your personalised backuppc/config.pl file; I kept
the config.pl file I had used in 3.2.1 (and earlier releases) - might
be good to verify if there are items to be adapted, but worked ok
without such a verification - work still to do,
- make sure that the contents of the file backuppc/host are not modified
- make sure that the backuppc/pc directory and its files are not modified
