that's not the way BackupPC is supposed to work.

BackupPC keeps a copy of every file ever backed up as long as at least
one backup refers to it.

A backup is a snapshot of the rsync module at the time when the backup
was run. If you want to resurrect a deleted file just go back to the
latest backup that refers to a snapshot with the file still in existence.

As long as you keep a long enough history of backups, you will have
access to any file that has ever been in the rsync module.

Or did I misunderstand your intention and you want to see even deleted
files in the current/latest backup?

Best regards,
Boris
