Odd. I can't see why the server should require inetd, since it usually
runs as a cron job. A machine with the server but no client wouldn't
need inetd for Amanda (but it might for other things).

I wonder if Amanda used to be all one package, and when it was split up,
the dependency went to the wrong package.

Anyway, it's the client that wants either inetd or xinetd.

Since you could use either inetd or xinetd (I prefer the latter),
perhaps neither should be a requirement, but one or both should be
suggestions. There are plenty of implementations of inetd, but I think
folks using those are capable of adapting the amanda client
configuration to them.

Thanks for looking at this.
