I confirmed that in perl 5.28, version() gives the error you mentioned due to the trailing period (while perl 5.22 does not).

Specifically, what's the output from rsync_bpc --version perl -v I assume rsync_bpc is 3.1.2.beta0. For some reason the "version" package complains about a trailing ".", perhaps in only newer versions of perl (on perl 5.22.1 it works fine). Here are two options: 1) change this line $version = $1 if ( $output =~ /rsync_bpc\s+version\s+([\d.]+)(beta\d+)?\s+protocol/ ); to $version = $1 if ( $output =~ /rsync_bpc\s+version\s+([\d.]+?)(\.beta\d+)?\s+protocol/ ); 2) installing rsync_bpc 3.0.9 instead. The latest release is here <https://github.com/backuppc/rsync-bpc/releases/tag/3.0.9.12> .

I read up on the prerequisites, gotchas' etc and installed BackupPC-XS-0.57, rsync-bpc 0.01 and version 0.9924 using cpan. I've never used cpan before, but I didn't get any errors here. Installs should be fine. After that, I continued with installing the latest BPC 4.2.1 and it went w/o a hitch. The end remarks after BPC-installation mentioned restarting httpd so I did that. I also restarted the backuppc daemon for good measure And this is where the problem started, I got this: "Starting BackupPC: Invalid version format (trailing decimal) at /usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC line 125" The lines in /usr/share/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC is about this: $version = $1 if ( $output =~ /rsync_bpc\s+version\s+([\d.]+)(beta\d+)?\s+protocol/ ); if ( $version eq "unknown" || version->parse($1) < version->parse($PackageVersion->{rsync_bpc}) ) { print(STDERR "BackupPC: rsync_bpc at $Conf{RsyncBackupPCPath} needs to be upgraded (got version $1; need >= $PackageVersion->{rsync_bpc}); exiting in 30s\n"); sleep(30); exit(1); } I've no idea how to proceed. I can't find any information pertinent to the error message. Is version too old? Too new? Something else? Any help appreciated!
