First question has to be "is rasillo.pl.local in your disklist"?
You have a config by that name.  Are there also some entries
in a file called "disklist" with that hostname.

Ok, you are using a non-standard name for disklist.

I wonder if amrecover knows to lookup the disklist file
as the amanda.conf parameter "diskfile".  Perhaps try
making a link called "disklist" to your "diskfile" file
and retry amrecover to test this possibility.

Are you configured to use dbm database for your info?
If not, then this should be a directory an you chose a strange name.

You say that you are showing your config files.
Yet there are several entries with the following header.

> --/etc/amanda/rasillo.pl.local/amanda.conf--------------------------------------

I guess this one is supposed to be your disklist?
Only one entry?
