I figured it out.
Initially I was thinking that I was missing a package, but it turned out
to be selinux. I actually figured that out right after I sent the email
by doing an setenforce 0, and it started working.
So I installed setroubleshoot and figured out the problem is that I
moved the backup data directory from /var/lib/BackupPC to it's own
filesystem mounted on /data/backup, and since I did that, I had too:
setsebool -P httpd_read_user_content 1
Which solved my problem. I guess it was seeing the archive files as
'user_content' for some reason. In anycase, it works now, and enforcing
is back on.
Thanks.
