Hello,

while reading amanda.conf(5) I noticed the following comment about the
`include' dumptype option:

  All include expressions are expanded by Amanda, concatenated in one
  file and passed to GNU-tar as a --files-from argument. They must
  start with "./" and contain no other "/".

I've been using include lists for a long time now, but some of them
do contain lines with slashes after the starting `./'; this seems to
work fine, though.

So, why are slashes forbidden?


Regards, Jukka
