Package: amanda-server
Version: 1:2.5.1p1-2
Severity: important

When attempting to run 'amrecover' which reads the index for an entry in the
disklist containing '"' or '\' as characters, 'amrecover' spins away for an
inordinately long time (approximately 60 minutes) compared to those indexes
without such special characters (time is normally less than a second).

According to http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.archivers.amanda.devel/1875
this is a known problem and is fixed in version 2.5.1p2 (although 2.5.1p3 is
now available).

I'm raising this bug report as a hook to consider that the AMANDA packages in
Etch should perhaps be updated at the 'r1' release.
