Package: backuppc
Version: 3.1.0-4
Severity: normal

Hello,

i have configured archive host on backuppc to make archives over NFS to other 
machine. 
I want them to run regularly so I put this into my crontab:

55 12 * * 6 backuppc /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_archiveStart archive \
backuppc server1 server2 server3

It worked but archives are not compressed. I have configured archive 
compression:

$Conf{ArchiveComp} = 'gzip';

and if i run archive from web interface it is set as the default and archives
are compressed. I looked into BackupPC_archiveStart script and it seems to
ignore compression settings and uses cat insteda of compression:

These are the lines 94-106

my %ArchiveReq = (
    archiveloc  => $bpc->{Conf}{ArchiveDest},
    archtype    => 0,
    compression => $bpc->{Conf}{CatPath},
    compext     => '.raw',
    parfile     => $bpc->{Conf}{ArchivePar},
    splitsize   => '0000000',
    host        => $ArchiveHost,
    HostList    => \@HostList,
    BackupList  => \@BackupList,
    user        => $UserName,
    reqTime     => time,
);

I think there should be something to get compression setting from config.pl
instead of CatPath and .raw.

Regards
Vladislav Kurz
