It doesn't make any sense to me.  There was a recent thread on the list:
https://www.mail-archive.com/backuppc-users AT lists.sourceforge DOT 
net/msg26870.html
which sounded similarly broken, but that was on ubuntu and fixed with
a re-install.  My best guess would be that some perl module is
corrupted (unless your xfer logs are full of 'can't link errors).

If you installed the package from EPEL, you can use 'rpm -Vv BackupPC'
to see if any of the package files have been changed since
installation.
