Because of the way EPEL works "these days" I would have to specifically
request branches for 10.1, so they would essentially be a different branch.
I don't mind doing so if there's sufficient demand for it but I'm still
concerned that there may be non-BackupPC dependencies which are
unavailable, notably the perl-net-ftp-retrHandle package which I do not
maintain.
