What you've said makes sense to me too, but when I check the logs, it
shows that the files that were saved were compressed. Here's the full
log for the incremental:

But the real problem is why the system is requiring a full backup even
though it says it's an incremental. As far as I can tell, every single
file was backed up on the incremental which tells me that something in
FC6 is modifying something that Bacula looks at. I should note that when
I was setting the configuration files up, I simply backed up /etc and
the full and incremental backups worked as expected.
In this situation, I manually ran the job after modifying the bacula-dir
file to make sure it would work. I then let the system do an automatic
backup last night and was suprized that over 30GB of data were backed
up. I'm gonna run out of disk space in a hurry at this rate :-)
