Answering top myself...
All problems with this install (first, the cgi interface saying unable
to read config.pl and second the rsync problem) came from SELinux.
It seems (for fedora users) that there were a change on SELinux in
Fedora 5 :
(qutote from the fc5 selinux faq at
http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2963473)
"Now, su/sudo only change the Linux identy. You
will need to use newrole
to change the SELinux identity, role, or level"
I think it's the reason that rsync method failed with avc:denied
errors.
I have now disable selinux, and BackupPC is working argain.
By the way, I'm interested in any advice for SELinux configuration on
fc5.
Thanks a lot :)

Hello,
I have a strange (for me a least) problem when I try to backup the
localhost with backuppc.
I had to change my hdd, so I upgrade my FC4 to FC5. I made a fresh
backuppc install and use my FC4 config.pl and hosts files .
Everything seems to be ok for hosts on network.
For my localhost, when I try to use the cgi interface for a full
backup, I've the following :
Running: /usr/bin/sudo /usr/bin/rsync --server --sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group -D --links --times --block-size=2048 --recursive --include=/etc --include=/boot --include=/var --include=/home --exclude=/\* --exclude=/var/cache --exclude=/var/temp --ignore-times . /
Xfer PIDs are now 19323
Rsync command pid is 19323
Fetching remote protocol
Read EOF: Connexion ré-initialisée par le correspondant
Tried again: got 0 bytes
Done: 0 files, 0 bytes
Got fatal error during xfer (Unable to read 4 bytes)
Backup aborted (Unable to read 4 bytes)
I don't understand what is the error. Everything is ok when I launch
backup manually with the command line :
/usr/local/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_dump -v -f localhost
A few precisions now. The config.pl file for localhost looks like :
$Conf{BackupFilesOnly} = ['/etc', '/boot', '/var', '/home'];
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = ['/var/cache', '/var/temp'];
$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsync';
$Conf{XferLogLevel} = 1;
$Conf{RsyncShareName} = '/';
$Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = '/usr/bin/sudo $rsyncPath $argList';
$Conf{RsyncClientRestoreCmd} = '/usr/bin/sudo $rsyncPath $argList';
$Conf{ArchiveComp} = 'bzip2';
Also, in the config.pl file I replaced '--devices' by '-D' for
$Conf{RsyncArgs}
I added 'backuppc ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/rsync' with visudo so I can
use directly rsync without ssh for this host.
Thank you fo any help :)
