tar-1.24 and tar-1.25 are broken, downgrade to an earlier version or use
their git repository.

Hi,
I'm trying to setup amanda (dev branch from github) on a debian sid i386. I've
created a test environment as described in the wiki, with virtual tapes and
bsdtcp auth, and everything run fine, amcheck and amdump are successful and I
get my tape correctly recorded with some valid tar archive on it, except that
the archive is empty : it only contains the top directory as if I were dumping
an empty dir. The disk I dump is not a symlink or so, and I can tar it
manually with the same options as amanda. I checked all the logs and didn't
find any error. I feel like I missed some stupid detail but I really can't see
where, so any idea is welcome... Just in case, here are my conf files,
.amandahosts, and xinetd service file :
