Continuing with my estimate saga...

What would cause a level 1 backup of a DLE with gnutar
be as big as a full? Estimates are done with calcsize
and gnutar is 1.13.25 with amanda-2.4.5

Could it be that the gnutar-lists file is corrupted?
Looking at them I see that they all have the same size
for level 0 1 and 2...Normal?

Some debug info:
