Richard,
Packages came from epel repository for CentOS 8.
https://epel.hysing.is/8/Everything/x86_64/Packages/b/
seems they where uploaded/created 2020-06-22
BackupPC x86_64 4.4.0-1.el8
epel 489 k
BackupPC-XS x86_64 0.62-1.el8
epel 107 k
Without doing a complete reinstall of OS I can‘t be sure if a reinstall of
BackupPC will correct the problems. Might do that once I have tested the
features of BackupPC more.
Með kveðju / Best regards,
Arnar Þórarinsson

Hi all,
BackupPC install via EPEL
# rpm -qa | grep -i backup
BackupPC-4.4.0-1.el8.x86_64
BackupPC-XS-0.62-1.el8.x86_64
Also, dnf info backuppc does suggest looking at README.setup found under
/usr/share/doc/BackupPC/
Using su -s /bin/bash -l backuppc I can generate ssh keys and set up
passwordless logins to clients.
Still the wrong ownership of /var/lib/BackupPC is an issue with the install
packages.
No, I was trying to make that clear in my original response. The package I
build sets it correctly. I still don't know how yours was different.

Fixed with chown -R backuppc.root /var/lib/BackupPC , problem with that is
SELINUX, you will have problems with SELINUX and have to do some selinux stuff
for everything to work properly, and yes SELINUX should always be enabled.
For me the following worked.
I'm glad it worked but it should not be necessary as the package should also
set the selinux permissions correctly.

I would double check where the packages are coming from and first try
reinstalling them.
# dnf reinstall BackupPC
Thanks,
Richard
