I do not understand why people object to MySQL for this. If you're going to
use a database, use a good one. Sqlite is fine for small, simple apps doing
a small number of transactions. BackupPC is not that. MySQL is fast
(enough), reliable (enough), and well understood with tons of useful HOWTOs
and software tools (phpmyadmin, mytop, mysqldump, webmin).
