I think so, although as you pointed out, it's going to eliminate more
than just the index area.
I think this might work better:
./opt/amanda/adm/amanda/*/*.tmp
That should only ignore the temp files Amanda uses. All the others
will continue to be backed up.
It may still whine about the file changing, but that's less likely.
Be very careful with exclusion lists. The syntax is, shall we say,
less than obvious, and you should make sure it does not accidentally
skip something you really need (although the above is unlikely to have
that problem).
