I don't allow a script to alter the repo unless it's in big neon.

This is (btw) all placed in github ... so the actual clone is 'git clone'... 
and its mighty fast.  Far faster than a subversion copy or even a zip file.  
I'd just try the below if you're okay with that.   (Where in anywhere is gh.cf? 
  I can't find it in the repo and I've never used a gh.cf once.)

To drag in the current work I pushed that's definitely this (for 3.5.1) you 
need to make a branch off of origin/3_5, which has those changes I made.

It does (if I recall correctly) require a user "amandabackup" to exist, but 
that's all.   The user 'amanda' (?), not so sure if that's made in the build or 
not.

So use this entirely as yourself in your home/tmpdir or somewhere ... (building 
isn't installing, so the security is far less)

% git clone git://github.com/zmanda/amanda.git

Then (still as yourself) ...

% git checkout -b 3_5mine origin/3_5   # current target I'm assuming?

% bash autogen && ./packaging/deb/buildpkg

and with all the latest debian goodness it creates the debian packages which 
only then deserve a new user to install them.

Give it a whirl, hopefully with a zippier little clone from git.

The amanda-master.zip unpacks with several different ownerships, so I
made everything belong to amanda:amanda after unpacking it.  And I did
the apt install without any objections from apt. I'll admit I'm lost.
The system was uptodate earlier today.
