Did you stop BackupPC before attempting the command? I believe that's
required for most, if not all, command-line operations.

BackupPC_nightly will run all the nightly tasks. If your goal is a more
aggressive cleanup than usual, you'll need to adjust your nightly cleanup
configuration before stopping BackupPC and running the command.

Check the usage for BackupPC_nightly to find out if you can tell it to skip
updating ref counts.
