I'm marking this as confirmed as it meets the definition of a real bug
no matter how one looks at it.

Not being able to move TopDir is a bug: Many of us have /var on / and
have / on a single fast disk, but want our main data on our SAN or RAID
array. For example, I have /home on /dev/md0 and set TopDir to
/home/backuppc. We can move it, but it isn't supported - not supporting
such a crucial feature is a bug.

Having hardcoded default paths is a bug. It never ceases to amaze that
hardcoded paths continue to make it into production software.

I've also added the symlink, hope it eliminates that error.

** Changed in: backuppc (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed
