Oh, filesets with exclusions and wildcards... my favourite waste of
time in Bacula ;-)
Just one hint for now: The options section that matches *first* will
be applied, so you should define the options starting with the most
specific definitions first.
In your case, the first option block could be the one defining the
excludes, then the one defining the files not to get compressed -
simply omit the compression keyword here - and lastly, as a catch-all
for the remaining files, set your defaults including compression.
Also note that a fileset change will trigger a new full backup, so
before playing around with the options, set "Ignore Fileset Changes",
or use the "estimate listing" command to verify your fileset works as
it should.
