[gentoo-user] amanda run and build failure

[John Blinka <john.blinka@gmail.com>]

Hi, All,

After a long period of flawless behavior, I have recently (since
August 2) had both runtime and build failures with amanda.  I do daily
gentoo updates, always use revdep-rebuild and lafilefixer, always
follow post installation advice in the log.  I can't reinstall amanda
because the build fails (documented below), and I can't use amcheck to
see if amanda thinks there's a problem with configuration because
amcheck blows an assertion when I try to run it (also documented
below).  I've found no mention of others with the assertion failure
via Google.  I have not changed anything about my backup configuration
in more than a year, and daily backups have run flawlessly until
August 2.

Any thoughts on how to proceed?
