Hello,
I have had Amanda running for over a decade, yesterday I had no issue at
all but last night, my backups for Ubuntu machines started crashing
consistently with the error:
strange(?): runtar: error [runtar invalid option: -]
That even happens on a machine that is currently unused.
The sendbackup.debug:

Thank for any idea on what I should look for.
