Hi again,
I dug a little in Amanda code and found the reason why it was still
complaining about Strange dumps, even though the behavior with respect to tar
exit codes had been fixed.
Please consider including the patch below on the next Debian Amanda packages
release.
Thanks. Best regards
Claudio Martins
