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.
