Hi all:

Still trying to get a single master copy of the problematic db4 file
into backuppc's cpool.

I thought I could copy it over manually, put it in the right place in
the partially completed backup tree and start a normal full backup.

I can easily copy the file in 15 minutes or so (at 35MB/s), but I
can't do the compression that the files in the backup tree use. IIRC
BackupPC's compression mechanism isn't just a gzip of the file.

There is a BackupPC_zcat, but there is no BackupPC_compress. Does
anybody have such a beast, or is it impossible to create such a
program becuase info is needed from the transfer protocol (rsync) to
make the copressed version of the file?
