Thanks for pointing me to that command - I was already trying to figure
out the file format of backuppc's compression (or how to re-use
BackupPC::FileZIO in a simple command line perl script) so I could
develop a decompressor on my own ;-)

# BackupPC_zcat fstargazer-full-backup.tar | wc -c
/usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_zcat: can't uncompress
fstargazer-full-backup.tar
41114861568

So, I guess, the compressed file is just corrupt...

No, there is still about 250 GB of free space available...

98309136558 bytes
