I think what you're looking for is:
rm -rf /var/lib/backuppc/cpool/* /var/lib/backuppc/pool/* /var/lib/backuppc/pc/*
This deletes the pool plus all host data, basically starting back at
zero. Assuming the host is still listed as a target, backups will
repopulate next job.
If you're looking for a way to purge an individual host, remove it
from the hosts file, rm -rf /var/lib/backuppc/pc/HOSTNAME, and
backuppc_nightly will take care of the stale files next time it's
called. Similarly, if you just delete everything in
/var/lib/backuppc/pc/* and remove all hosts from the hosts file,
backuppc_nightly will basically delete your pool for you.
