Hi all,

Anyone got a way to delete a single path from all historical backups?
Doesn't have to be immediate of course - happy for the nightly job to take
out the trash.

It was trivial in backuppc v3 - just go to the encoded path in the cpool
and truncate the file to 0 to take care of all the hardlinks.  But I
suspect here it's a case of finding the mapping of the file from each
backup (that info is not in $machine/XferLOG.4218.z, so I don't know where
else it would be), and then truncate/remove (since no more hardlinks),
while also taking care of legacy v3 files.
