Indeed. 

As it should be (or is?) possible to apply things like
compression only to files selected by a "wild = " or regx= option this is
a bit strange. 

Kern can you clarify this? Are the following FileSets not correct?

Maybe this is only possible by creating more Include{} resources.
I dont know... maybe like this:


# 1. compress only *.txt and *.TXT files:
FileSet {
  Name = OnlyCompressTxtFiles
  Include {
    Options {
      compression = yes
      regex = "^.*\.(txt|TXT)$"
    }
    File = /home
  }
}

# 2. compress all but gzip'ed files
FileSet {
  Name = CompressAllButGzipFiles
  Include {
    Options {
      compression = no
      regex = "^.*\.(gz|tgz)$"
    }
    Options {
      compression = yes
    }
    File = /home
  }
}

Bacula makes a full backup after you modified a FileSet, may this be
the cause?

Or may it be that all your files have a modification time in the future?

Yes..... have a deeper look at the files. And use

"estimate job=<jobname> level=Incremental listing"

in bconsole to test what would be done.
