Either wait until UTC catches up to local time (or vice versa) since
chances are, this is caused by switching time zone models -- or locate the
file(s) that are dated in the future and either touch them, or travel
forward in time to when they were last updated.

It may be instructive to check the time both as the backuppc user and as
on the system you're trying to back up.
