Unfortunately this beta seems to break the usage of (my) tapechanger(s).

>From amcheck I get stuff like:

Changer problem: could not read result from "/usr/libexec/chg-zd-mtx"
changer problem: could not read result from "/usr/libexec/chg-zd-mtx"

When I run (as amanda-user and inside the configdir):

$ /usr/libexec/chg-zd-mtx -info
/usr/libexec/chg-zd-mtx: line 1265: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
/usr/libexec/chg-zd-mtx: line 1265: `           fi'

A diff between the chg-zd-mtx-scripts within 2.5.1p3 and 2.5.2b1 show
several changes, maybe someone is quicker at debugging this than me (in
fact I am pretty sure) ....

Seems to be related to the quotes etc.

A suggested fix for chg-zd-mtx (I am unsure if I got the positions right):
