installing BackupPC 4.4.0, i setup with an alternate config dir
perl configure.pl --batch \
--config-dir /usr/local/etc/backuppc \
...
my configs are
ls -al /usr/local/etc/backuppc/{*,*/*}pl
-rw-r----- 1 wwwrun www 87K Oct 3 21:35
/usr/local/etc/backuppc/config.pl
-rw-r----- 1 wwwrun www 3.5K Oct 5 07:14
/usr/local/etc/backuppc/pc/localhost.pl
when I start the CGI
systemd start backuppc
it fails
logs
Oct 05 08:12:45 test systemd[1]: Started BackupPC server.
Oct 05 08:12:45 test BackupPC[3316]: No language setting
Oct 05 08:12:45 test BackupPC[3316]: BackupPC::Lib->new failed
Oct 05 08:12:45 test systemd[1]: backuppc.service: Main process
exited, code=exited, status=2/INVALIDARGUMENT
Oct 05 08:12:45 test systemd[1]: backuppc.service: Failed with
result 'exit-code'.
simply
ln -sf /usr/local/etc/backuppc /etc/BackupPC
cures the problem
systemd start backuppc
logs
Oct 05 08:16:28 test systemd[1]: Started BackupPC server.
ps ax | grep -i backuppc
3353 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/bin/perl
/usr/local/BackupPC/bin/BackupPC
i understand that "--fhs" defaults to config location under '/etc/BackupPC',
but reading
https://backuppc.github.io/backuppc/BackupPC.html#Configuration-File
&
https://backuppc.github.io/backuppc/BackupPC.html#Config-and-Log-Directories
expected that the @ configure.pl override would be respected.
looking in
bin/BackupPC
the only mentioned cmd line options is "d"
...

my %opts;
if ( !getopts("d", \%opts) || @ARGV != 0 ) {
print(STDERR "usage: $0 [-d]\n");
exit(1);
}

what/where do i need to config to correctly point BackupPC at the intended
config-dir = /usr/local/etc/backuppc
