You're not rhe first there - excludes are a bit difficukt to
understand, I guess.

You've got an exclude without specifying what to exclude. I don't know
what defaults Bacula uses in that case.
Also note that, for obvious reasons, it's not very useful to specify a
signature method and compression for excluded files...

I don't think I ever used the old syntax, so I assume Dan is right.
But, more to the point, you'll probably need at least two include
sections:
One with "Exclude = Yes" and using a file you prepared, the other with
the compression and signature options.
The exclude one should be the first include section in the fileset -
the first match wins, so if you have the other one first, and files
are listed in both sections, they will be backed up.
Personally, if you're already preparing lists of files to back up, I
would just make sure your list to include only contains what you
really want - that would be even simpler.
