There is a bit more info here:
http://backuppc.wiki.sourceforge.net/keep_yearly_backups 

The documentation also explains another bit.

Onderwerp: [BackupPC-users] trying to understand Conf{FullKeepCnt}

Last night backuppc was a hero.

We had a dell sata raid card drop an array, just 'cause :P

anyway it was 11pm night last night restoring from backuppc (which  
went very nicely) after ssh keys were restored and such ;)

anyway..

I noticed that the backups were only two weeks, and in reading in the  
manual how to increase the retention time.. I quickly became confused..

   $Conf{FullKeepCnt} = [4, 2, 3];

this looks like (by the explanation) that this would be 16 weeks of  
backups, or 4 months.. would doubling that give it 8 months? and  
tripling it be a year?

I am assuming it will still do nightly incrementals?

I am not sure if it is confusing or I am tired.. but either way I  
would like to get an answer ;)

Thanks in advance,
