Can you be more specific about the problem you are trying to solve?
Backuppc normally expires/deletes backups at a specified rate by
itself and it only stores one copy of any identical file regardless of
how many times it is backed up. You aren't going to save any space
by deleting old copies of something that is still on any target you
are backing up.
