Re: Get file from copy of BackupPC archive

Unfortunately, I must rely on backups from 2020 or earlier (my ISP
dropped their own POP mail server in 2021, and migrated us to a google
IMAP server).? I goofed in my config.pl file, and was not backing up the
IMAP data.
From a backupInfo file in the archive hierarchy I am interested in,
?'version' => '3.3.0',
so I must work with V3 BackupPC.? Any pointers would be much
appreciated, to recover files.
A very quick look at the docs (as it happened, for 3.3.2) here:
https://backuppc.github.io/backuppc/BackupPC-3.3.2.html#Command-line-restore-options
tells me that usage of BackupPC_tarCreate is very similar in V3 and V4.
As it's an old data store you'd probably need to do things like making
sure that __TOPDIR__ is set correctly for the archive. Give it a try?
