no, it's pretty easy. I've done several. 
Unless you've really hacked up your config.pl file; my advice is to take a
copy of it (call it config.pl-212 or something like that), upgrade to 3.0
with the new package (always use packaged software on production systems),
take a diff of the old and the new config files, and put your changes back
in.

alternatively; keep the old file and just add in the new features from the
new config file. I think they are:

$Conf{BackupsDisable} = 0;
$Conf{IncrLevels} = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6];
(or whatever your preference for incremental levels is)

make sure you change:
'--devices',
to:
'-D',
in the rsync options (2 places).

and make sure you install the newest RsyncP version.
