The amanda postinst was previously using 'usermod -G disk,tape backup'
to add user backup to those groups, which had the side-effect of
removing user backup from any other groups.  There was also no logic to
clean up those group memberships on package purge.

I've switched amanda to using addgroup/delgroup instead, which should
solve the problem and actually makes amanda better behaved all around.
Thanks for the bug report providing the impetus to review this!  In my
CVS now for the next upload of amanda packages.

By the way, the -a option to usermod is currently broken, I've just
filed a bug about that.
