I know there are more elaborate ways to do this, but the way I do it is:
/etc/init.d/backuppc stop
go to /var/lib/backuppc/pc/<hostname>/<backup>/subdir/you/want/to/remove
rm -rf the files or tree of files you want to take out of the backup
/usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_nightly 0 255
then go to /var/lib/backuppc/trash and delete all the files in there.
/etc/init.d/backuppc start
YMMV; but hopefully this gives you a basic idea how to go about it.
there may be something I'm overlooking; I'm sure more clueful heads than
myself will correct me if I am. :)
