I'm running amanda 2.5.2p1 under NetBSD. since updating, I've been
getting bogus warnings from the planner about overwriting full dumps:

my tape numbering is not contiguous. the above is a complete list of
tapes.
from amanda.conf:
dumpcycle 5 days # the number of days in the normal dump cycle
runspercycle 5 # the number of amdump runs in dumpcycle days
tapecycle 13 tapes # the number of tapes in rotation
that's one dump per day, as shown above... how does the planner figure
I'm going to overwrite DailySetA11 in 5 runs? is there something that
needs to be kicked?
