betas are betas.  if this is a test setup, go ahead and run the beta, but if
this is to hol;d critical data, use the stable.  if you are moving to ubuntu
7.10, then just install ubuntu and `apt-get install backuppc` and you will
be set.

i will also point out to you that if you will be storing files somewhere
other than the default(ubuntu) /var/lib/backuppc, maybe consider mounting
that volume on /var/lib/backuppc, otherwise some of the status info in the
gui is missing.

also, if you want, you can pull bpc3.0 from ubuntu backports instead of
upgrading.  i personally just moved a few machines to 7.10 server and im
very happy.
