Despite changing the name in the rules file, its hard coded to be 
amanda-backup in the .dsc files. GRRRRRRR

Without fixing this, how the hell do we get rid of the older version 
trash when updateing it?  Seems like a heck of a good question to me. Do 
we expect the users to wear out find in cleaning house file by file?  I 
think not.

This was amanda for 2 decades before some marketing type decreed a name 
change. What was this person thinking?

Anyway, I blew that whole /home/amanda/amanda directory away an started 
with becoming amanda, then a fresh git clone from github.
Then did exactly as said. It builds 5 packages. so I attempt to install 
the amanda-backup-server since this machine is the server.

And its stuck, just like the previous attempt.  No cpu used, no progress. 
pstree does show but one process, but htop shows 5, with the highest pid 
being from gnupg getting a no-permissions from /var/lib/amanda. An ls -l 
of that dir is:

amanda@coyote:..$ ls -l /var/lib/amanda
total 16
-rw-r--r-- 1 root         root     34 May 11 09:59 amanda-release
-rw-r--r-- 1 backup       backup    0 May  6 10:51 amandates
drwxr-xr-x 3 amandabackup disk   4096 May 11 11:01 example
drwxrwx--- 2 amandabackup disk   4096 May 11 09:59 gnutar-lists
drwxr-xr-x 2 amandabackup disk   4096 May 11 11:01 template.d

And that directory is owned by backup.  And I'm lost, and I need to go 
convince a winders 10 home edition that I am indeed boss. I can't even 
get it online. Need a manpage for netfs.

Thanks Chris, but its Your turn.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
