BackupPC does not as far as I know have scripts or commands yet to actually
remove backup from the pool.
To remove bckups you need to get into the script.
Solution
cd /var/lib/BackupPC/pc//
ls
rm -fR /usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC_nightly 0 255
Check space reclaimed with df.

A lot of thank to everybody which answered my questions
which have been asked a lot of times, sorry :-(.
I've learned from your answers that my model of BackupPC storage of full and

backups by hand. So we won't do that.
