The main issue is, that I expected the delete button in
the host overview page to delete that specific backup,
which contains data it was not supposed to back up.
I know there is deduplication, that's why I deleted the
recent backups of _all_ hosts, in case the newly
introduced data was used in another host as well.
Did you restart the daemon after making your changes?
systemctl restart backuppc
If you did not then the edits to the host config would not
be known to backuppc till the next wakeup scheduled in the
main config.
Also how thorough the deletion is could be a function of the
nightly script as configured in the main config. I would
search the term "nightly" in the main config and read the
commentary for each of the options and their effects on how
much of the pool is traversed with each nightly run.
