I am no backuppc expert but after backups it links the files. Perhaps 
this means that the files were not changed but also not linked to most 
current backup?

I might be totally off, this is just a guess... (perhaps not even an 
educated one) :)

http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/BackupPC.html
BackupPC ``fills-in'' incremental backups when browsing or restoring, 
based on the levels of each backup, giving every backup a ``full'' 
appearance. This makes browsing and restoring backups much easier: you 
can restore from any one backup independent of whether it was an 
incremental or full.

?

Well I am probably wrong about this but anyway :)
