Looks like a typo in bin/BackupPC_archiveStart.  This line:

    compression => $bpc->{Conf}{CatPath},

should be 

    compression => $bpc->{Conf}{ArchiveComp},

Or slightly more correctly, if $bpc->{Conf}{ArchiveComp} is "none"
you should set compression to $bpc->{Conf}{CatPath} instead.

You might also want to change the value of compext 
when compression is on.
