Package: backuppc
Version: 2.1.1-2sarge1
Severity: normal
The default datadir is set to /var/lib/backuppc. If you want to use a seperate
disk
for backups, you can't. The configure script with backuppc allows setting the
datadir
to whatever the user wants. Debconf ought to allow the user to set the datadir
depending on how the machine is set up.

Hi!
I close this bug because the data directory can be modified as you need:
1- by simply moving /var/lib/backuppc where you want and adding a
symbolic link.
2- or by modifying the $Conf{topDir} variable in the config file (more
details are available in the documentation).
Best regards,
