Apparently your package uses the "backup" user. The user here
reports that to make things work, the shell has to be changed from
nologin. This seems incompatible with the base-passwd definition of
the "backup" user.

Could you please share your reasoning why you're not setting up an
amanda-dedicated user for this purpose?

Upgrades default to resetting base-passwd-defined users to what
base-passwd sees as correct.

Chris
