I am not the op, but backuppc sounded pretty nice, so yesterday I tried to 
install it on both my Wheezy and Jessie systems.  It didn't work (with 
different failures) on either system--I won't give much detail for now, but I'd 
just ask a few questions:

   * what system (what version of Debian) are you using?

   * should I expect that it will properly configure a web server (on the 
Wheezy system it talked about apache2, iirc), or must I have a properly 
configured web server before installing backuppc?

Some cryptic notes on the failures:

On wheezy, I thought the installation completed successfully--it ran something 
it called a script, and, in or after the script it gave me a url to log in to 
manage backuppc along with a username and password.  When I tried to go to 
that URL, using either http or https on either of my browsers, it gave me a 
404 error.

On jessie, it apparently did not complete the installation, it told me it 
could not run that initial script.

Suggestions?
