Yup.
rerun configure, and recompile amanda client.

Im not sure if this is going to work
Why not simply in disklist
misp /a/felix comp-tar
misp /a/not-felix comp-tar
and move all dirs that are not felix to a new dir (/a/not-felix) and stick
symlinks (as in ln -s /a/not-felix/* /a).
The estimate getting will be a lot faster
(and even more if you use my hack to sendsize ;) )
Kind regards,
