Fedora has a very short life cycle that may be worth the trouble
if you want the latest desktop apps, but for a server that
needs to keep running a long time with just security/bugfix
updates I like Centos.   In any case it is a good idea to
put your backuppc installation on it's own disk so when
the time comes to completely reinstall a new OS you can
just mount your existing archive and go on.
