Just to add a totally different option/perspective to this...

One I use frequently is to find the pid of the backuppc process
ps axf |grep -i backuppc
Then look at the files it is working on:
ls -l /proc/<pid>/fd

If you want, this one is nice too:
watch "ls -l /proc/<pid>/fd | grep backuppc"
Basically don't show the other entries you aren't interested in, also
a "|cut -c 40-" or similar could be added to the end to make it look
more pretty...

Adam
