I do not see the relationship between LD_LIBRARY_PATH and
the Bash scripts some amanda tools may use…
Some if not all crontabs allow to set environment variables
,-[crontab]----------------
|FOO = bar
|LD_LIBRARY_PATH = /my/lib/
|
|10 2 * * * amdump DailySet1
`-------------------------
At least the crontab(5) of the cron my Linux box allows that. (Vixie
Cron)
Another way should work always
,-[crontab]------------------
|10 2 * * * LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/my/lib FOO=bar amdump DailySet1
`-----------------------------
… if your crontab commandline gets parsed and executed
by a /bin/sh derivative.
