Because I wouldn't want BackupPC to be a vector for compromise. The

Ahhh.. you are right... LogDir is separately configurable from TopDir.

FWIW, the log directory in Arch Linux is /var/log/backuppc, and it's not
a symlink.

The log location is almost certain a distribution-packaging choice, so
along with recommending reading documentation you might also point out
that the source documentation may not match what is actually installed
and running.
Thanks!

Dear kosowsky,
Did you not see my note on unnecessary hostility?
You provided some good detail in your last message, but I could deal
without the attitude. I might just have to block you if this keeps up.
And this does seem like a bug. Why would you present an empty zip file

Hi Christopher,
Thanks for the kind response.
I found the possibly culprit log entry that I attached to this thread
just earlier.

Hi,
Regards to:

I know there are no data files stored in the pc tree. I understand that
BackupPC uses hard links for file-level deduplication. In traditional
BackupPC datastores that I've worked on, the hard links on a per-file
basis do exist in the pc directory. Unless this was changed?
Hi Mark,
It is normal that there are no files. The files are in the pool or cpool, not
the host folder.
But why you are getting an empty file from the restore is not clear.
Please help us helping you and provide logs from the backup you try to restore
and some general infos about your setup.

Hint #1: there are no "data files" stored in the pc tree
Hint #2: Your statement "I didn't even know that my backups are
completely broken and missing all files." sounds ri
