 Hi to all,
 
 not from my side.
 We have switched away from amanda to bacula a long time ago, so I  
 haven't tracked this anymore.
 A short look at the history of this report show me, that "someone"  
 has developed a small patch that filters out st_dev==-1.
 I thought that this has been added to pkgsrc patches.
 
 I still think it should be fixed in pkgsrc.
 Of cause it can (and perhaps even should) be reported to the  
 maintainer. But in the past there are lot of other fixes done in  
 pkgsrc for amanda, so why not another one.
 
 mary chrismas and a happy new year.
