That's deliberate, as perl-suid is dead since perl-5.12. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 573 *** Status:

RESOLVED Now why didn't I find bug 573 when I searched? Sorry for wasting your time. I will now read up on the workarounds suggested. (No problem). See also bug #600 I did not manage to make backuppc from the repository work as such - but with the changes to the permissions of BackupPC_Admin.cgi and BackupPC_Admin as suggested in comment 15, backkuppc runs perfectly. In case you want to have a look at my lighttpd.conf (which is slightly tricky), ask at juergen.harms@unige.ch CC:

Description of problem: perl-suid is required for backuppc but is not in Cauldron even though backuppc is. Error message from backuppc "Error: Wrong user: my userid is 74, instead of 76(backuppc) This script needs to run as the user specified in $Conf{BackupPCUser}, which is set to backuppc. This is an installation problem. If you are using mod_perl then it appears that Apache is not running as user backuppc. If you are not using mod_perl, then most like setuid is not working properly on BackupPC_Admin. Check the permissions on /var/www/backuppc/BackupPC_Admin and look at the documentation. "
