Looks to be a defect in the makefile.  Doesn't distinguish that there
is one man page targeted for the section 5.  I'm guessing that
amanda.conf.5 is under /usr/local/amanda-2.4.5p1/man/man5.  And
that it should not even be getting installed by that part of the
makefile (there are separate install man5 pages and man8 pages
targets in the makefile).

As a workaround until the defect is corrected, you might try to
copy the amanda.conf.5 file from the man5 to the man8 directory
before running "make install".
