Because 337p1 squawks about a bogus line in the tapelist, I put 3.5.1 
back in.

Someone ask how small it had to be to trigger this bug.
root@coyote:/home/amanda/amanda-3.5.1/server-src# su 
amanda -c "/usr/local/sbin/amadmin Daily due"|grep Overdue -

Overdue 22 days: shop:/usr/local = du -h 136k

Overdue 22 days: shop:/var/amanda = du -h 4k, but only file is a link 
to /etc/amandates

Overdue 22 days: lathe:/usr/local = du -h 136k

Overdue 22 days: lathe:/var/amanda = du -h 4k, but only file is a link 
to /etc/amandates

Overdue 22 days: GO704:/var/amanda =du -h 4k, but only file is a link 
to /etc/amandates

So the /var/amanda can be dumped if the reference to amandates is changed  
to the real file in /etc which is backed up by a different dle. That 
will fix 3 of the overdue warnings. 

But the /usr/local warning is a different critter. I had not 
considered /usr to be a backup target because it will be restored by the 
distro install dvd + an update/upgrade.

Removing the local will  make it about 6 Gb. Ridiculous increase for no 
benefit.  Rebuilding the client to use the real file in /etc/amandates 
makes more sense.

Other ideas?
