The current version is 3.0.0 and would be considerably easier for a new
user. In a new install it puts all the config files under /etc/BackuPC
including the per-pc configs and it provides a web based editor for the
configurations. Another improvement is that it no longer blocks backups
during the nightly cleanup run. It may also require some updated perl
modules.
