Bloody hell. Stupid is as stupid does. Forgot to copy new init script
over. <Grumbling begins here>

mph,
Yes, that appears to be an old init.d script. And, yes, IncrLevel is
no longer present in 4.0.0.
None of the recent 3.x.x or 4.0.0 init.d scripts include that code.

I noticed that BackupPC would not start and gave a very cryptic

BackupPC cannot be started because important parameters are

config.pl <http://config.pl>.
If you just upgraded BackupPC, please update
/etc/backuppc/config.pl <http://config.pl>.
I noticed in the init script there is a grep for IncrLevel. If it's
missing BackupPC will not start. Since v4 is using reverse deltas
there
isn't a need for this, is there? (The setting is missing from v4
documentation.)
Is this a hold-over from v2 to v3 upgrade?
For expediency I removed the check from my init script.
check_old_config()
{
BAD=0
CONF=/etc/backuppc/config.pl <http://config.pl>
grep -q IncrLevel $CONF || BAD=1
if [ "$BAD" = "1" ]; then
echo "BackupPC cannot be started because important parameters
are missing from config.pl <http://config.pl>."
echo "If you just upgraded BackupPC, please update
/etc/backuppc/config.pl <http://config.pl>."
exit 1
fi
}
Cheers!
