Sorry, searched the amanda_users searchable archived but didn't
see anything on this.

We see messages like "amrestore: gzip, restore ok, trailing garbage ingored"
and have always assumed it resulted from DD writing trailing garbage at
the end of the last (fixed length) block but the question arose and I
thought I'd try to confirm this.

                                                thanks,

                                                Brian
