apt-cache show gvfs

If you have no idea what it does, you probably don't need to back it up.

./.gvfs

assuming a dle of:

yendi.localdomain /home/charles comp-root-tar-yendi-home

and a dump type of:

define dumptype comp-root-tar-yendi-home {
    comp-root-tar
    comment "Root partitions with compression, special for
yendi:/home/charles"
exclude list "/etc/amanda/DailySet1/excludes.yendi.home" }

This is on Amanda 3.2.1, and tar 1.25 (Ubuntu 11.04).
