As a packager, I would seriously consider removing the mixed-case from the 
directory names (and package name) and contact backuppc about this fact.

In Unix we have a tendency to not use uppercase or mixed case for a 
specific reason and applications shouldn't mandate new standards or poison 
existing standards, more than they already have. (/etc/X11 comes to mind)
