OK, I just tested upgrading my install of Ubuntu precise amd64 BackupPC
3.2.1 to 3.3.0 using the Debian package. This works perfectly:
wget
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/b/backuppc/backuppc_3.3.0-1_amd64.deb
dpkg -i backuppc_3.3.0-1_amd64.deb
Answer no (the default) to any prompts to overwrite hosts or config.pl.
Thanks for including my email patch in 3.3.0, Craig. I love the other
changes as well.
Regards,
Tyler
