If it doesn't help, you can try to connect via ftp and delete them from there. Sometimes it allows to use names, which on a shell may not be used or can't be correctly found.

It works fine until `find ...` returns files with spaces. I've tryed to change IFS but haven't succeed

bup-tag
bup-tag(1) General Commands Manual bup-tag(1)
NAME
bup-tag - tag a commit in the bup repository
SYNOPSIS
bup tag
bup tag <tag name> <committish>
bup tag -d <tag name>
DESCRIPTION
bup tag lists, creates or deletes a tag in the bup repository.
A tag is an easy way to retreive a specific commit. It can be used to mark a specific backup for easier retrieval later.
When called without any arguments, the command lists all tags that can be found in the repository. When called with a tag name and a com-
mit ID or ref name, it creates a new tag with the given name, if it doesn't already exist, that points to the commit given in the second
argument. When called with '-d' and a tag name, it removes the given tag, if it exists.
bup exposes the contents of backups with current tags, via any command that lists or shows backups. They can be found under the /.tag
directory. For example, the 'ftp' command will show the tag named 'tag1' under /.tag/tag1.
Tags are also exposed under the branches from which they can be reached. For example, if you create a tag named 'important' under branch
'computerX', you will also be able to retrieve the contents of the backup that was tagged under /computerX/important. This is done as a
convenience, and should the branch 'computerX' be deleted, the contents of the tagged backup will be available through /.tag/important as
long as the tag is not deleted.
OPTIONS
-d, --delete
delete a tag
EXAMPLE
$ bup tag new-puppet-version hostx-backup
$ bup tag
new-puppet-version
$ bup ftp "ls /.tag/new-puppet-version"
files..
$ bup tag -d new-puppet-version
