I tried the above variante but it didn't work.
FileServer:~/pc/vistabase/0$ /usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_tarPCCopy 
/var/lib/backuppc/pc/vista-test/1 | tar xvPf -
Can't find vista-test/1/attrib in pool, will copy file
./vista-test/1/
./vista-test/1/attrib
./vista-test/1/backupInfo
./vista-test/1/fWINDOWS/
./vista-test/1/fWINDOWS/ffveupdate.exe
tar: ./vista-test/1/fWINDOWS/ffveupdate.exe: Kann nicht zu 
»»../cpool/a/b/0/ab03b8091f0d8637c0c32e2cceb91a74«« linken: Datei oder 
Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
(which means file or directory not found)
and a lot of something similiar errors.

But:
FileServer:~/pc/vistabase/0$ ls -li ../../vista-test/1/fWINDOWS/ffveupdate.exe
4449170 -rw-r----- 3 backuppc backuppc 6448 2009-01-22 04:29 
../../vista-test/1/fWINDOWS/ffveupdate.exe

FileServer:/root$ ls -li 
/var/lib/backuppc/cpool/a/b/0/ab03b8091f0d8637c0c32e2cceb91a74
4449170 -rw-r----- 3 backuppc backuppc 6448 2009-01-22 04:29 
/var/lib/backuppc/cpool/a/b/0/ab03b8091f0d8637c0c32e2cceb91a74

Also I am surprised that a directory
/var/lib/backuppc/pc/vistabase/0/vista-test/1
will be created.

I know, in documentation BackupPC_tarPCCopy is described as a tool to copy a 
whole "pc" tree
to another location.
Did someone have experience to use it for copying one host?
