The current openafs versions in wheezy and jessie do not support the use of regexps for volume names. (That is, they do not include the change you see mentioned in the 1.6.14-1 changelog.) Are you encountering issues on a wheezy and/or jessie system while attempting to use this functionality? I am somewhat reluctant to put in the time to push through the necessary stable-proposed-updates if there is not actually anyone who will benefit from the changes. (My understanding is that most sites who use the OpenAFS backup system do so with the TSM support, which is not enabled in the Debian packages and must be done via a custom build.) -Ben
